+
+1. Overview
+-----------
+
+  This set of two programs (Tap2Lem and Lem2Tap) are designed to allow you to
+  easily modify and create new levels for the ZX Spectrum version of Lemmings.
+  They work by converting between a .tap file (an image of a tape - this
+  format is used by many Spectrum emulators), a simple text file specifying
+  the information about the level (the .lem file) and a Windows bitmap (.bmp)
+  containing the graphics for the level.
+
+2. Tap2Lem
+----------
+
+  Syntax: Tap2Lem tapefile
+
+  Tap2Lem takes the .tap file given as tapefile, and for every Lemmings level
+  it finds within that file, it will output two files:
+
+    1) levelnn.lem, where nn is the level number, which contains the
+    information on the level name, number of skills available, trapdoor and
+    home locations, etc. See Section 4 for a complete descripition of the .lem
+    format
+
+    2) levelnn.bmp, a 512x128x2 Windows bitmap which contains the graphics for
+    the level.
+
+  Note that files already existing with the names given above will be
+  overwritten.
+
+3. Lem2Tap
+----------
+
+  Syntax: Lem2Tap textfile tapefile
+
+  Lem2Tap takes the .lem file given as textfile and using that (and the .bmp
+  file specified within it - see Section 4), appends the Lemmings level
+  specified to tapefile.
+
+  The .bmp file must be a 512x128x2 Windows bitmap; no other sizes or number
+  of colours are supported. Also, compressed bitmaps are not supported.
+
+4. .lem Format
+--------------
+
+  The .lem files used to specify the level information should be text files,
+  in your system's normal format for such files. How files which are not in
+  your system's normal format will depend on your compiler.
+
+  No blank lines are allowed in .lem files (except at the end and possibly if
+  you want a blank level name). Comments are permitted - these should begin
+  with a semicolon (;) and continue to the end of the line. Data items on the
+  same line should be separated with commas (,), and should be specified in
+  decimal.
+
+  1st line: The level number and the rating of the level (1=Fun, 2=Tricky,
+            3=Taxing, 4=Mayhem).
+  2nd line: The number of lemmings are the number to be saved.
+  3rd line: The initial (and minimum) release rate.
+  4th line: The time in minutes available to finish the level.
+  5th line: The number of each skill available (in the order climbers,
+            floaters, bombers, blockers, builders, bashers, miners, diggers)
+  6th line: The level name (max 32 characters; only capitals, digits and
+            spaces will appear correctly). No comments are permitted within
+            the first 32 characters.
+  7th line: The x and y locations of the trapdoor and home respectively.
+  8th line: The colours used to display the levels (in standard Spectrum
+            attribute format - bit 7: flash, bit 6: bright, bits 5-3: paper
+            colour, bits 2-0: ink colour)
+  9th-18th lines: The hazards on the level, one per line. Each line should
+                  have three numbers: the hazard type (only 4, water, allowed)
+                  and the x and y locations of the hazard.
+  19th line: The name of the 512x128x2 Windows bitmap containing the level
+             graphics.
+
+5. Miscellaneous
+----------------
+
+  1. The specification of the .tap file format can be found in either
+     FAQ for the comp.sys.sinclair newsgroup
+     (http://www.kendalls.demon.co.uk/cssfaq/).
+
+  2. The Windows bitmap format, being a Microsoft format, isn't well
+     specified. Your best bet (and what I did) is to use a search engine with
+     something like "bmp format specification".
+
+  3. Lemmings is available from
+                      ftp://ftp.nvg.ntnu.no/pub/sinclair/tapes/l/lemmings.zip

+
+  Darren Salt: for writing the first (and only) Lemmings editor that I found,
+               which inspired me to write this and also helped me to work out
+               the bits of the format which I hadn't done up to that point
+               (principally the hazards). Darren's editor is available from
+               ftp://ftp.nvg.unit.no/pub/sinclair/snaps/games/unsorted-new/
+                                                      misc/DS_Own/LemmsEd.Z80.
