This small program is a new tool for Boulder Dash fans. It reads a Boulder Dash game in BDCFF
(Boulder Dash Common File Format) and creates BMP pics of all the caves in the original colors. An example of
such a picture can be found below.
Moreover, it writes an HTML file in which you can view the caves together with their properties.
Click here for an example.
Information about the BDCFF format can be found at the BDCFF page.
Up to now a lot of games have already been converted, you can find the maps at
this page.
