CreatingBundles

Creating bundles

makebundle is used to package multiple files in one data container (called a bundle). E.g. a font is a bundle of an image file and a text file with the character map. The bundles can be accessed in random fashion. The bundle can contain more bundles.

For example, a klystron font is a bundle of the following directory structure:

fontdata/charmap.txt
fontdata/font.bmp

The actual bundle is created with makebundle as follows:

makebundle font.fnt fontdata

This bundles all files in the directory fontdata as font.fnt. The font could then, for example, be bundled inside a larger bundle containing all game data.
