-Texture Overrides
-=================
-
-You can override the textures of a node from a texture pack using
-texture overrides. To do this, create a file in a texture pack
-called override.txt
-
-Basic Format
-------------
-
-Each line in an override.txt file is a rule. It consists of
-
-	nodename face-selector texture
-
-For example,
-
-	default:dirt_with_grass sides default_stone.png
-
-You can use ^ operators as usual:
-
-	default:dirt_with_grass sides default_stone.png^[brighten
-
-Face Selectors
---------------
