Generalization

[Jaykingamez]

The code seems to be geared towards one specific use case, so I spent some time generalizing the code so it could be used across many Visual Novels.

In the example below, the code will only run if the character's name is a single character. But if the character is for example Twilight Sparkle, and I used "ts" to represent her, the code will fail.

if char[0] == character[0]:
                current_character = character[1]
                previous_character = current_character
                break

I've also replaced usage of os.system with subprocess as os.system has been deprecated.

Also, I have replaced the below-hardcoded number with a variable dependent on the number of rows in the dialogue.tab

print(str(i) + '/' + str(3252))

Lastly, I have replaced all line[0], line[1], line[2] references with a single variable to speed up processing as you have admitted, it will take a long time since the code makes one API call per row

id = line[0]
speaker = line[1]
dialogue = line[2]
