Spring plugin

Hi All,

I've cobbled together the beginnings of the Spring import/export plugin for L3DT. Below are two screenshots of its work; the first is a Spring map exported directly from L3DT, and the second is a Spring map ('Small Divide') that I've imported into L3DT via the plugin, and rendered in Sapphire.

Aside: If my eyes don't deceive me, the texture for Small Divide appears to have been made in Terragen.

At this stage, the plugin can read and write SMT and SMF files. However it doesn't support SMD yet (you have to write these manually), and nor does it properly support features or vegetation. Furthermore, the main window display needs to be modified to allow the use of indexed colours when editing the vegetation/type maps.

Anyhoo, I should have a dev build ready in the next few days.

Cheers, Aaron.
