NAME

       bi2cf - a map conversion tool for Crimson Fields

SYNOPSIS

       bi2cf mapname [-p 1|2] [-f b|1|2|h] [-l] [-t mapname] [-i mapinfo] [-o outfile] [-d mapdir] [-O destdir] [-q]

       bi2cf {-h | -v}

DESCRIPTION

       bi2cf is a map conversion tool for Crimson Fields. It takes the data files of maps from Battle Isle, Battle Isle Data Disk 1 or 2, or
       History Line 1914-1918 and converts them into map sources usable with the cfed(6) map compiler for Crimson Fields.  bi2cf can handle both
       uncompressed maps and levels crunched with TPWM.

       For some units and tiles there are no corresponding counterparts in Crimson Fields. These cases are mapped to similar ones if available. As
       a result some maps will not be as balanced as the originals, others may be unwinnable, and still others may even fail to compile. If this
       happens the map in question needs to be adjusted manually.

OPTIONS

       -d mapdir
	  Set the location of the Battle Isle map files.

       -f b|1|2|h
	  Force map type to Battle Isle / BI Data Disk 1 / BI Data Disk 2 / History Line, respectively. Use this option when map format
	  autodetection does not work correctly. Maps from BI Data Disk 1 will always be detected as standard Battle Isle maps, so you have to use
	  -f 1 in that case.

       -h
	  Print a usage message on standard output and exit.

       -i mapinfo
	  Set map info message.

       -l
	  Skip last row and column of the map. This is necessary for maps from the PC version of Battle Isle.

       -o outfile
	  Write map to file outfile. Default file name is mapname.src.

       -O destdir
	  Set target directory for the converted map. This setting is ignored if a map name was given using the -t option.

       -p 1|2
	  Set default number of players for this map.

       -q
	  Run quietly. Don't print processing information on standard output.

       -t mapname
	  Set title and file name for the converted map. Default is maptype-mapname.

       -v
	  Print version information on standard output and exit.

NAME

       makemap - create database maps for sendmail

SYNOPSIS

       makemap [-N] [-d] [-f] [-o] [-r] [-s] [-v] [-C file] [-c cachesize] [-D commentchar] [-e] [-l] [-t delim] [-u] mantype mapname

DESCRIPTION

       makemap	creates  the database maps used by the keyed map lookups in sendmail(1M). makemap reads from the standard input and outputs to the
       specified mapname.

       In all cases, makemap reads lines from the standard input consisting of two words separated by white space. The first is the database  key,
       the  second  is	the  value. The value may contain %n strings to indicated parameter substitution. Literal percents should be doubled (%%).
       Blank lines and lines beginning with # are ignored.

       makemap handles three different database formats.  Database format is selected using the maptype parameter. See OPERANDS.

OPTIONS

       The following options are supported:

       -c cachesize    Use the specified hash and B-Tree cache size (cachesize).

       -C file	       Use the specified sendmail configuration file (file) for looking up the TrustedUser option.

       -d	       Allow duplicate keys in the map. This is only allowed on B-Tree format maps. If	two  identical	keys  are  read,  both	be
		       inserted into the map.

       -D commentchar  Use the specified character to indicate a comment (which is ignored) instead of the default of '#'.

       -e	       Allow empty value (right hand side).

       -f	       Normally, all upper case letters in the key are folded to lower case. This flag disables that behavior. This is intended to
		       mesh with the -f flag in the K line in sendmail.cf. The value is never case folded.

       -l	       List supported map types.

       -N	       Include the null byte that terminates strings in the map. This must match the -N flag in the K line in sendmail.cf

       -o	       Append to an old file. This allows you to augment an existing file.

       -r	       Allow replacement of existing keys. Normally makemap complains if you repeat a key, and does not do the insert.

       -s	       Ignore safety checks on maps being created. This includes checking for hard or symbolic links in  world	writable  directo-
		       ries.

       -t delim        Use the specified delimiter (delim) instead of white space.

       -u	       Dump (unmap) the content of the database to standard output.

       -v	       Verbosely print what it is doing.

OPERANDS

       The following operands are supported:

       mapname	       File name of the database map being created.

       maptype	       Specifies the database format. The following maptype parameters are available:

		       dbm	       Specifies DBM format maps.

		       btree	       Specifies B-Tree format maps.

		       hash	       Specifies hash format maps.
