I'm open to other ideas and suggestions, but my current idea was that you could do something like the following (not real code):

1. blocklist = Decryptor.readFile("game.xy")
2. Modify a block in the blocklist
3. (eventually) Encryptor.writeFile(blocklist, "game.xy")

Or:

1. Create new types of Blocks as java objects (FileHeaderBlock, etc.), setting their properties through Java.
2. build up a block list
3. Encryptor.writeFile(blocklist, "game.xy")

The whole idea is to be able to edit the data using standard java objects, then reading/writing to a file using those objects. Internally, we could easily have other data types as members of the blocks themselves, then allow API access to them.

I don't know the best way to go about it.. I just started coding and this is what happened. Above all, I want to make the code semi-easy to follow as that will lower the barrier to entry for contributions. Smile
