TMSColor: Converter from BMP/PNG to TMS9928 format
3.2 Aug/26/2025 by Oscar Toledo G. http://nanochess.org

Usage:

tmscolor [options] image.bmp image.asm [label]
Creates image for use with assembler code

-sms Sega Master System mode.
Allows up to 448 tiles using -t
-nes NES/Famicom mode.
Allows up to 256 tiles using -t
-b Generates CVBasic source code.
-n Removes CVBasic stub code for displaying.
-z Output file is compressed with Pletter.
-s Process tiles in chunks of 16 pixels high (sprites).
-sb Same as above but generates BITMAP statements.
-t Generates minimum of tiles required.
-t1 Same but starting at tile 1 (0-255).
-e45d2 Replaces color 4 with 5 and d with 2 before processing.
-fx Flip image along the X-coordinate (mirror)
-fy Flip image along the Y-coordinate
-i Generates BITMAP statements instead of DATA
-i2 Generates BITMAP statements using X and .
-m Generates magic sprites for areas with more than 2 colors
-p1 Searches best color combination for photo (slow)
-p2 Searches best color combination for photo (2x2 dither) (slow)
-o result.bmp
Outputs the final image, plus highlight of errors (if any).
-d Direct copy of binary input file to output (can compress).
Useful for getting binary data in ASM or CVBasic code.

Best photo conversion is generated by this command line:
tmscolor -p2 photo.bmp photo.bin
Photos will look better if the contrast is good.
Magic sprites will work only with an image of 256x192 pixels.

Thanks to LeandroCorreia for ideas of color conversion.
