- You're correct. Impulse hasn't released any tech info about
- textures. Grrr. I guess they don't want to "confuse" us with any messy
- details about their product. BTW, the textures are simply executable
- binaries. Presumably, a texture could be written in any language -- C,
- 68K, maybe even compiled Rexx or BASIC! Steve Worley and Glenn Lewis,
- the authors of Essence, back-engineered the texture format. They had minimal
- assistance from Impulse.
