Build me a simple Python tilemap editor for making maps for 2D games. I want to launch it from the command line, initialize settings the first time, then open an editor window where I can paint tiles quickly, create and edit maps, save them, and load them again later.

Use pygame for the editor since this is meant to feel lightweight and fast. Include a small parser or viewer utility that can read the saved map files and display them, so I can test that the exported maps will work inside a game.

Please make the project installable as a normal Python package with basic commands like init and run, include a minimal example showing how to start the editor from Python, and add simple docs for first time setup. Keep it practical and focused on fast iteration rather than fancy features. If you need details, look up current pygame packaging docs online.
