WIP article currently based on research on RTW/BI only, please add information on M2TW and remove this note

Rome.LNT is used to edit the main menu and subsequent pages of RTW and M2TW. It can be used to change the location of text, add new text and images, create new pages etc; it will also allow you to remove text and images as well.
Examples of various pieces of code:
<texture>textures\FE_texture1.tga <path>textures</path> <region>rome_logo_main_menu <left>0</left> <top>36</top> <right>489</right> <bottom>204</bottom> </region> <region>gold_bar <left>0</left> <top>206</top> <right>348</right> <bottom>211</bottom> </region> <region>arrow_continue <left>180</left> <top>213</top> <right>237</right> <bottom>246</bottom> </region>
and:
<lpage>main_menu <UI piece>main_menu_rome_logo <identifier>UIP_EMPTY_ART</identifier> <Parameters> <x>266</x> <y>30</y> <width>489</width> <height>168</height> </Parameters> <object_id>rome_logo_main_menu</object_id> </UI piece> <UI piece>main_menu_singleplayer <identifier>UIP_MENU_BUTTON</identifier> <Parameters> <x>255</x> <y>256</y> <width>513</width> <height>38</height> <menu_id>new_game</menu_id> <UI text>UI_MAIN_MENU_SINGLE_PLAYER <font_id>arial_split_CAF</font_id> <align>centre</align> </UI text> <tool_tip_id>UI_MAIN_MENU_SINGLE_PLAYER_INFO</tool_tip_id> </Parameters> <object_id>empty_push_button</object_id> </UI piece>
The trouble is, what does it all mean?
Deciphering the Code
We will look at what different pieces of code are, and what they might reference to. Note:Each description will be for the code above it.
<texture>textures\FE_texture1.tga
This line references the TGA file located in data/menu/textures.
<path>textures</path> <region>rome_logo_main_menu <left>0</left> <top>36</top> <right>489</right> <bottom>204</bottom> </region> <region>gold_bar <left>0</left> <top>206</top> <right>348</right> <bottom>211</bottom> </region> <region>arrow_continue <left>180</left> <top>213</top> <right>237</right> <bottom>246</bottom> </region>
