In that particular distribution there is a short note from iD about some
improvements that could be made (like using BSP trees). Maybe some of them
could be implemented too :)

I'll leave that for Michael since he seems to be more interested than I, and
I'm still plodding along with my Sierra-style game engine. Silly of me to
think I'd just port it to DJGPP (from Borland), of course I had to make a
hundred improvements on the way :) ... and BTW, I don't think I am
exaggerating with 100... my "changes to be made" log file has over 50 ideas
and I introduce others on a whim, who knows how many I'll end up making...

Sorry to get off the track a bit there, you probably don't care about my
little programming baby. (It was 4 years old, and now it is but a foetus
again!)
