The AngbandTk Vault Editor

Two modes of editing

You can edit features and icons.

Four layers of icons

Layer 1 is the bottom layer and can contain opaque icons only. Layers 2, 3 and 4 can contain transparent icons only. If you try to draw a transparent icon into layer 1, it is put in layer 2. If you try to draw an opaque icon in layer 2, 3 or 4 it is drawn in layer 1. The four buttons are used to change the current layer (or you can type 1-4 on the keyboard).
