In the Tiled development topic wasn’t the best place, so I’ve moved it into its own topic now. 🙂

Please don’t hesitate to upload the code to [GitHub](https://github.com/) for example, so that it may be useful to some people. It can also be linked from the [Libraries and Frameworks](http://doc.mapeditor.org/reference/support-for-tmx-maps/) page in the documentation.

How does your solution compare to [tmx](https://github.com/baylej/tmx/) (another C library for loading TMX files)?
