  var files = hpi.Read(@"D:\games\ta\totala1.hpi");
  hpi.Write(@"D:\games\ta\totala1.out", files)


  // FBI, TDF, GUI, OTA
  var extensions = new string[] { ".fbi", ".tdf", ".gui", ".ota" };
  var directoryPath = @"D:\games\ta\extracted";
  foreach (var file in Directory.GetFiles(directoryPath, "*.*", SearchOption.AllDirectories))
  {
      if (extensions.Contains(Path.GetExtension(file).ToLower()))
      { 
          definition = parser.Parse(file);
          Console.WriteLine($"{file} {definition.Blocks.First().SectionName}");
      }
  }


  // PCX
  var extensions = new string[] { ".pcx" };
  var directoryPath = @"D:\games\ta\extracted";
  PcxConverter pcxConverter = new();
  foreach (var file in Directory.GetFiles(directoryPath, "*.*", SearchOption.AllDirectories))
  {
      try
      {
          if (extensions.Contains(Path.GetExtension(file).ToLower()))
          {
              var pcx = pcxConverter.Parse(file);
              var f = Path.GetFileNameWithoutExtension(file);
              pcx.SaveAsBmp($"{f}.bmp");
          }
