- It sure is.

- Yes, I noticed but how do you go back again? (I probably missed something in the hurry)
- The program did also crash for me and killed the computer totaly. :-)
- I have never seen such a dead falcon before. I got some bombs and when computer died.
- Everything went black. Normaly the computer resets but this time it _died_. :-)
-
- I hadn't got the time to reproduce it, but I will test it again. Anyway if it's a bug
- it appeard when I had inserted some new textures and when tried to remove them.
- (the problem is that I doesn't know where I inserted them as I didn't realy knew where
- I were in the WAD file... ).
-
- Another thing, everything works in realtime right? So when I insert a texture it inserts it
- directly (writing to the file) you doesn't need to save the WAD before leaving, right?
-
- Another thing (okey here I go again... ;-)) This little tool would be ACE as a GEM program.
- As you can't edit the graphics it isn't that important that you show them in truecolour
- so they could be dithered in a window letting the user run a graphicseditor at the same time
- and a soundeditor for the sounds and a wordprocessor and MPEG2 sample playing in the
- background. :-)))
-
- Arghh... if I only had an AB! :-)
-
- Everything should be in a nonmodal sexy dialogs with iconify and everything. :-)
- Ahh.. I can see it before me. The directory window showing all the entries, the sound imported
- into a sound editor and the graphics into a graphicseditor. And maybe someone could make
- a levelmap editor too, to edit the levels? :-))))
-
- Just a thought... and it would also let the user run FWT under MagiC. Now it crashes badly.
- I guess this will go away as this is an early beta. :-)
-
- Anyway. FWT is very nice and looks like it will be very usefull. A GEM version would only
- be a bonus. :-)

- PS. Don't take the GEM thing to seriously, it's just my GEM-crazy mind that strikes from
- time to time. DS.
