MAKMAP
------

MAKMAP allows you to create worlds that the EMPIRE program can
read.  You manually type in the map you would like as EMPIRE would
print it out, subject to the following:

1.  The only legal characters are "+", ".", and "*".  The other
    characters that EMPIRE prints are a function of the program.

2.  To make it easier to use a terminal, type the data in
    TRANSPOSED.  Thus, your completed map will contain 100 rows,
    each 60 characters wide.  Note:  That's a lot of typing.

Then run MAKMAP, which will ask for your text file, and the name
of the binary output file.  The resulting file may then be used
in one of two ways:

1.  Delete or rename any EMPIRE.DAT files you may have.  Define
    GAM: to be non-existent.  Run EMPIRE, which will pop up with
    an "%FRSOPN ..." error message and ask for new file specs.
    Type in the name of the binary file created by MAKMAP.

2.  Eventually it will be possible to include more maps in the
    GAM: area, but that is not yet possible.

OUTMAP
------

The OUTMAP program may be used to output a "readable" map from
an encoded map.  Running OUTMAP is trivially simple.
