I've missed this topic. Anyway, OS SHP Builder 3.35 has two files dedicated for this format. The code is derived from Olaf's, there are some flaws (which I fixed in the unreleased 3.36) and it's in pascal. There is one function that, thanks to the help from Olaf, I translated from asm to pascal. Some other asm codes from Olaf are hard to implement on Delphi, so I had to adapt the non-assembly ones.

I think it will be useful for you, but don't see it as a great reference, because, I've warned before: there are minor problems...
