Scrap file is a normal text file, so you can use any text editor to write some (or some script to convert them from other format). But in reality, I can not imagine, how would I create it without some graphical editor. Even in the therion very beginning, we had an graphical tool, that was scaning our movements of mouse over an image. But if you want to read coordinates of walls and stones from the paper and type them in vi - editor, you can... ;-) Until some manual to xtherion will come, you can do following simple steps: 1. Go to map editor 2. File->New 3. Press Insert button in Background images control panel 4. Open some *.gif (limitation of tcl/tk) file 5. Press "Auto adjust" button in Drawing area control panel 6. Open File commands control panel 7. Select "Action" -> Insert scrap 8. Press created "Insert scrap" button 9. click on "scrap1" in file commands list box 10. set "projection" to none in scrap control panel 11. press Control+L (or Edit -> Insert line) 12. draw close line (couter-clockwise oriented ;-) by clicking the last point on the first point 13. save the file as test.th2 Now an export of this simple map should work, if you will type folloving thconfig file source test.th2 export map none If this will work, then the lesson 2 will come. But probably you'll understand a lot of things from this simple example... > I'll try and finish my debianizing whilst I wait - and will carry on > experimenting to see if I can work it out myself. We've been discussing this topic, but we would not like /debian directory to be in the root source directory. If it can not be in the /src, than we would appreciate the way of patches... Regards, S.
