Hopefully I get some time this weekend to work on my editor or libraries.
Once I get lump insertion and deletion working properly, I will start
writing an addon unit to do conversion of the many weird formats that Doom
uses (music, sound, graphics, patches etc), its definately on the todo
list,
I thought about using external libraries such as DevIL, mus2mid (and vice
versa), but it just seems like more of a pain really.
