I have been having trouble extracting anything with ndstool.

I use the syntax as the tool specifies and nothing happens.

eg, ndstool -x file.nds

nothing then happens when I hit return.

Can anyone help me?

You should also tell it WHAT to extract!

The damn thing shows all commands you can use if you don't specify any at all, y'know.

got that sorted but now when I try to re-make the file it says it requires ARM9 binary file.

Any ideas?

Doesn't mater, I have figured it out.

Okay. The DS has two processors. Any DS rom you find will therefore contain two programs. Both can be extracted by NDSTool.

You can't reassemble the rom without all parts: Arm7 binary, Arm9 binary, header, logo and if it's used a file system.

In other words,

Twice even.

At least bobob doesn't sound like a n00b... :\

And being nice to newbies is probably the one thing that makes them stay... I know I'd have left long ago if I weren't treated too well...

(And Kawa for staying at his current position on staff. )

Ah suck it Hyper. You think I care what you say? I was just saying that she could have been nicer, but I said it in a self-amusing way.

And you could've said that in a bit of a nicer way too...
