Not quite, but that's definately our aim. ;)

That's basically it. Keep in mind that if you want 100% power in editing
DOOM levels, there _will_ be some things that are a little hard to get used
to. What we wanted to do was make the most powerful editor and then make it
as easy as possible to use. It's conceivable that there will be other editors
that are easier to use but don't do as much. Also, I'm currently considering
a suggestion to Raphael that we release a DEU 5.3 that is just everything
currently in the editor right now perfectly working, to appease the masses,
show that we HAVE been working (I don't read or post to news groups, so I
don't know who, if anyone, is keeping the r.g.d.e folks informed). Then
release a 5.3 with the extra features. Or perhaps a 5.29 and a 5.3. What
are you opinions on this? Benefeits and drawbacks? I'll send off the
opinion results to Raphael (what IS that guy up to?).
