I work with typviewer which is capable of importing en exporting text files: http://opheliat.free.fr/michel40/TYPViewer3.5/
It is free to use but there is no info about under what license it can be used. You can ask the developer about the source code.
Can you ask the author? There is no email address visible on the page.
You can have a look at http://code.google.com/p/mkgmap-style-s … efault.txt to see if this is workable or not.
Sorry, what is the … hiding? Your message was text/plain only.
Also there is Nick Willinks Typwiz editor, http://www.pinns.co.uk/osm/ He is on this list so he might comment on this.
All we need is a bare-bones text-to-TYP converter. No GUI needed. Icons could be embedded in the text file in some one-character-per-pixel (ASCII graphics like) NetPBM format or imported from *.png files, if we want to be fancy (and do not mind having binary *.png files in our repository). Any of these existing conversion tools could be a starting point. The programming language does not matter; all we need is a reasonably machine-readable documentation of the TYP file format. Marko
