SLumpEd
-------
By Simon "SlayeR" Judd


Overview
--------
SLumpEd is a wad lump management tool. Sure there are many of these out already,
but this one I designed just to be simple, and to be able to import any kind of
file as a lump, without the manager complaining and/or converting it to an
undesirable format. The layout and controls should really be self-explanatory.


Features
--------
 - All the basic features you'd expect of a wad lump manager
   (create/open/save wads, manipulate lump ordering, import/export lumps, etc)
 - Full zip/pk3 support including directory manipulation
 - Open multiple wadfiles at once in tabs
 - Cut/copy/paste lumps either within a wad or across multiple wads
 - Simple, easy-to-use, nice looking interface
 - Advanced text editor with syntax hilighting and autocomplete for various
   text lump types (ACS scripts, DECORATE, etc)
 - Full PNG image support, including offset manipilation and high-colour support
 - Compile ACS scripts
 - Convert between PNG/BMP/Doom Gfx/Doom Flat image formats
 - Ability to edit TEXTUREx lumps


Planned Features
----------------
 - Wad merging
 - Convert between doom wad and zip formats
 - View more lump types (map data, palette, etc)
 - Open lumps in external programs for editing
 - Much more...


Installation
------------
Just extract the program somewhere (preferrably to it's own directory).
