==== CObject Text File ====

Most of the text data files in Lionheart are text dumps of classes. They are the same general format, so this page should suffice to describe them all.

==== Purpose: ====

zax files

textures

surface types (.STY)
...?

==== EBNF specification ====

  (* FIXME: I have not tested this specification, so there are probably errors in it *)
  (* FIXME: Dynamic Properties are not handled in this description *)
  (* FIXME: DialogTree dash lines are not handled in this description *)
  (* FIXME: spurious empty lines and EOLs are not handled as well *)
