The following text can also be accessed by clicking on the title bar of the window.

Usage :

1. Click on [Open] and select the map directory where the GPSFS files are.
2. Enable/disable tiles, levels...
	[Levels] for omitting zoom-levels.
	[On/Off] to enable/disable (turn on/off) individually selected tiles.
	( multi selection is available in the listbox )
3. Click on [Analyze] - May take quite some time... Enabling [No Visual] can speed it up...
4. Adjust compression settings ( after completed analysis only )
	Scrollbar : choose approximate target size (compression ratio setting).
	Enabling/disabling selected tiles/levels will reduce size approximations. Re-Analyze helps...
5. Click on [Create] and choose/create a folder where the new map will be stored.
	- Again, might take a while, but not as long as the analysis...

Others:
 'Re-Analyze' is there if you enabled/disabled several tiles ( changed lots of settings ) and already
had an analysis done before. ( This will guarantee a more precise size approximation on the files to
be created... )

Navigation :
 Besides the obvious buttons in the 'Navigation' area ( I/O = Zoom In/Out, U/D/R/L = Move Up/Down/Right/Left )
there are mouse controls as well :
- Clicking with the left button on the tiles around the central tile will result in repositioning the tiles
  ( move to the selected direction )
- Clicking with the left button on the central tile will toggle its status (enabled/disabled).
- Clicking with the right button on the central tile will pop up a detailed information on the tile.
- Clicking with the right button on the upper tiles and tile to the right from the central one will zoom in.
- Clicking with the right button on the lower tiles and tile to the left from the central one will zoom out.

Limitations :
- Only JPG based GPSFS will be created, PNG based ones will be converted to JPGs. (v0.3 will have PNG recompression )
- Be patient, it may take a long time to do the proper analysis...
- If there are insane amount of tiles, the listbox will be disabled.
   ( Individual tile selection can be done with the scrollbar / navigations )
- After the analysis is done, you can elect to create several outputs by creating maps into different directories...
   The analysis has to be done once only, while creation with different settings can be done multiple times...
- Completion time predictions are very rough and can be inaccurate if a map has lots of missing tiles.
   ( A more precise prediction would consume a lot more system resources... )

CHANGES :
v0.2
	- By popular demand; Evaluated 16bit JPG compression, no benefit...
	- Implemented 'FastPass' for jpg compresions.
	  Improvement on analysis time is ~20~30%, but reduces size prediction. Still worth it...
	- Select map FOLDER instead of the GPSFS file
	- Multi-tile preview window with navigations ( control buttons and mouse )
	- Better logistics on task interruptions
	- Play sound after analysis / convert is done
	- Split the ETA computation into "empty" and "normal" tiles and compute the result accordingly
	  to provide more accurate ETA. This is still not 100% accurate, as it would require more system resources
	  which I prefer using on speeding up the conversion process instead...
	- Added hour on top of the existing minutes:seconds in ETA
