+The sahli file definition format is as follows:
+"file" - the actual filename on disk, "name" - the title of the piece,
+the boolean 'amiga' indicates if it is ansi or ascii (True = ascii),
+width is the width (widest point of the file), author the author of the piece,
+the color and bg items define the color for amiga ascii, and the font
+defines the font similarly.  For PC ansi, this should be 'ansifont.'
+The three remaining lines are informational and optional.
+
+The slide format is currently unused, but consists of a background picture,
+a html template, and a css file.
