espjoin - by Peter C. Capasso aka Blockhead

	Espjoin is a command line utility to join many esp files into one
esp file.  It will not work with all esp files!  The intended use for this
program is to join esp files created by txt2esp4.
	C source is included.

1. usage
~~~~~~~~
 espjoin <filelist> <outfile>

	Outfile is the name of the new esp file that you wish to create.  The
filelist is the name of a file containing a list of esps to join, in the order
that they should be joined.  You must create this ahead of time.  The format
of this file is simple, one esp file name per line, in the order you want them
to be joined.
	Here is a sample list file, containign names of 3 esp files:

esp_1.esp
esp_2.esp
fwaa.esp

	Note that there are no quotes.  There are no leading or trailing
spaces.  There are no empty lines.

3. known bugs
~~~~~~~~~~~~~
	It will not work with all esp files.  it can easily write a corrupt
esp file because the order of things in an esp file is very important.  It is
best to use this program only only for joining esp files created by txt2esp.
	Actaully, there is one exception to that.  If you join a bunch of
txt2esp-made esp files along with one "real" esp file, and if you put that
"real" esp file at the top of the file list, then all should work well.  Test
on non-critical data beforehand!

4. shout outs
~~~~~~~~~~~~~
        This program was inspired by Jim Adam's GenMod.
	Erik Benerdal's TESAME was used for checking the output of this
program and for ascertaining certain fine points of the esp file format.
	I could not have created this program without the Morrowind ESP
Format file that was created by Erik Benerdal and Jim Adam.  Thanks
guys!

5. legal crap
~~~~~~~~~~~~~
	It is real easy to write bad esp files with this program if you are
not sure what you are doing.  If you screw up, it's your fault, not mine.
	You can copy, "swap", upload, "share" this thing anywhere you want.
Just try to mention where you got it and keep this file with it, ok?
