you can't just make up new tags here you; there is no gui tag which is why the build fails

Thank you. I've removed that line as I wasn't using tags appropriately.

Not tagging the tool at all is also not a solution. Release select appropriate tags from the collection of available tags

More generally, while I do think that this tool addresses a genuine issue with exports and imports of work orders, I think it does so in a very suboptimal way. I don't think there is any point to implementing (structured) json editing inside DFHack. If json editing is the goal, I'm pretty sure this would be better done using external tools. As far as I'm concerned, a much better user experience would be to pop up a selection list/table before exporting or importing orders. Ideally, that list would enable at least the following functionality: filtering, select visible, deselect visible, invert selection. |

Interactively browse, pretty-format, and delete individual or multiple work orders from DFHack order JSON files via a two-stage picker and trimmer UI.
