First: You will need python version 3. If you don't already have it, download the latest version from python.org. You can check which version of python you have by typing python -V.

All wrapper code is licensed to Skyler Leonard, under the terms of the GNU
General Public License, either version 3 of the License, or
(at your option) any later version. See the file COPYING for more
information.

Installing: This package contains three python documents; wrap.py, instaopts.py and commands.py. To install the wrapper, copy all three to your server directory (the same as minecraft_server.jar). Now, instead of running minecraft_server.jar like you would normally, run python3 wrap.py.

Running: wrap.py take a few optional arguments:

-h | --help
    Show usage information.

-u | --unmute-keepup-warnings
    By default the wrapper will not print lines similar to
    "[WARNING] Can't keep up! Did the system time change, or is the server
        overloaded?".
    This option turns that feature off.

-v | --verbose
    This option does nothing.

-d | --dont-remove-ops
    By default the wrapper will delete all server operators, as found in
    ops.txt, letting itself handle who can use which commands. This
    option turns that feature off.

-s | --server-dir server-dir
    Specify an alternative directory to find minecraft_server.jar in; by
    default use the current directory.

-e | --server-options server-options
    Specify different options for the server options; by default use the
    options recommended on the website: "-Xmx1024M -Xms1024M"

-i | --dir dir
    Specify a different directory to use for the wrapper option files, by
    default use 'wrap'.

The Wrapper: The wrapper adds many functions to minecraft:

    /item
        The /item command is similar to the built in /give command,
        however it is syntactically different, and allows for item black
        or white listing. The syntax is:
            /item (id or name) quantity [usernames]
        Item names can be found in the generated file 'items.txt'.
        [usernames] is optional, and defaults to the issuer of the
        command. The item list is a generated file, 'itemlist.txt', and
        wether to treat it as a black vs white list is specified in
        'settings.txt'.

    /kit
        The /kit command is like a batch /item. Kits specified in the
        'kits.txt' file can be received by a user by typing:
            /kit kitname

    /day and /night
        Shorthand for the built in /time command, /day will make it day
        (time is 0) and /night will make it night (time is 14000)

    /motd
        Display the Message Of The Day to the user. If 'motd on' is
        specified in 'settings.txt', also send it every time a user
        logs in.

    Money (/pay, /freemoney, /stats, /userstats)
        Each user can get a certain amount of money when they initially
        login. This amount is set in 'settings.txt'. The money unit e.g.
        'euros' is also set there. Users may give money to other users
        with the command /pay; syntax:
            /pay receiver amount
        Users can see their current money with the command /stats. One can
        see another's money with the command /userstats; syntax:
            /userstats username
        The command /freemoney will give money to the user who issues it;
        syntax:
            /freemoney amount

    /reboot
        Remotely reboot the server. This is the only command that does not
        check if a user has permissions to execute, because it uses a
        password, specified in 'settings.txt'. Syntax:
            /reboot password
