Tape file format

Hi,

Where can I find a specification of the .tapes_v2 file format? I'm considering to generate this file from my BOM semi-automagically. But looking at it there seem to be more control characters than real letters in that file.

Yes, it is a binary file. Probably I could have done it in text, but the way it is, is the easiest that allows changing the format in future revisions. If you can program in C#, you can get the save routine from the source code (or by asking me). Basically, you need to get the data to a C# DataGridView that has the same columns as the LitePlacer software.

Thanks, I'll have a look at the code.
