+* =imbricate= Makes Tilesheets For Games
- The =imbricate= turns a directory, with possible nexted directories,
- containing images of varying sizes into a single tile sheet. The tool also
- produces file containing a list of property lists that includes a location and
- a name for each image within the sheet.
+ The =imbricate= produces tile sheets from a directory tree the
+ leaves of which are PNG image files.
- The property list outputs either a list of plists, or a json file.
+ The PNG files can be of any size. The =imbricate= tool will attempt
+ to pack the tiles into a square tile sheet.
+
+ Imbricate also produces an "index file" for the tilesheet, providing
+ a name and a location of each individual image. The index can be in
+ Lisp or JSON formats.
