Converts .GBR files created with
Harry Mulder’s Tile Designer (GBTD)
and .GBM files created with
Harry Mulder’s Map Builder (GBMB)
to different formats for use with the Game Boy and
GBDK.

N.B.: Not all of the functionality provided by Harry Mulder’s GBR and GBM
file format specification have been implemented; however there is enough to

Also converts .MOD tracker files setup for the Game Boy for use with
AntonioND’s GBT Player.
