MAP

The MAP-file is used to set colors for each layer and purpose.
The original MAP-file contains the numbers for layer and purpose as used in the GDS II-file and writes a String as description to each of them. This file is useful for designers to make layer and purpose human readable in design-programs.
graphICs uses another String for each line in the file to set a color in the output for this layer and purpose. Just add a whitespace and a String of the form #rrggbb, where rr, gg and bb are hexadecimal numbers specifying a color value for red, green and blue.
