As its name might suggest, "tlf" format is a somewhat
encrypted version of "flt". This was done purely for
the Performer Town database as initially distributed
with IRIX, and I believe that the town is the only
database extant in the "tlf" format. The town
database is distributed in unecrypted form on the
Performer 1.2 CD.

For the needlessly curious: on some versions of IRIX,
the demos subsystem is not stripped and running "nm"
on /usr/demos/bin/perfly provides a significant hint
as to how "tlf" works. ;-}
