Time is very limited right now, but my wife and son are leaving on 
vacation soon so I hope to have a new release of libdoomwad in the next 
two or three weeks. Once I get libdoomwad working well enough for basic 
stuff, I plan on rewriting Winwad. I am going to use something like 
wxWidgets so I can make it cross-platform.

My main questions are about some of the newer entry types that are 
poorly do***ented. For example, some of the Boom and ZDoom entries have 
little or no do***entation. To understand them I will have to crawl 
through the code for the tools.

Anyway, my first milestone is getting functionality in place to manage 
wads and entries as units, not necessarily to go inside entries and do 
stuff.

Some of the C code can be intimidating if you do not have lots of 
experience. This is not the fault of the language, but more because of 
programmers not commenting, using non-descriptive variable names, using 
confusing shortcuts, etc.
