I always thought that there was a technical reason again that. Since
that is not the case I'll have a shot at writing such a copy script.
Attached is a first, simple script, to check if I understand the legacy
tile format and the oceantiles.dat. Please give feedback.

PS: spaetz, if you think this might work please run it on the server an
send me (or the list) the output. Thanks.
