Hmm cool approach. I've been back and forth with Raven to try and get the source re-licenced. > Perhaps a small patch for those ports so if doom2.wad does > not exist, try freedoom.wad before quiting with an error ? That's entirely possible within a "closed ecosystem" like say, just Debian main, but I doubt any ports would accept such a patch upstream. So it wouldn't scale up to new ports, and it wouldn't be much use for new IWADs other than freedoom either. The alternatives system caters for both. -- Jon Dowland http://alcopop.org/
