Game Maker import support
Import Game Maker files, there are multiple versions. (gm6, gmk, gm81 at least). LateralGM supports importing them. Let's reuse their implementation by wrapping it in a Jython script that produces the necessary LPS or JSON and resource files. Then some glue in the main program to call the jython script and really load the lps/json. The advantage of a shared codebase is worth the java dependency. (But let's make it optional.)

Whiteboard
'Alpha available'. Until now it was possible to map GameMaker actions pretty much 1-1 to OGD actions, but for the ones still coming it's probably needed to write a Game Maker support library. E.g. for drawing live sprites (no loops in OGD), showing high score, etc.
