Anonymous	I can't believe somebody still used DEU in 2001...however, this map is just awful: it's how a 1994 "showcase" WAD would look if Boom was available in 1994. Am I missing something, or the map is not even completable without jumping? Don't waste your time on this one. Even the template is barely within standards. Awful. 1/5 -Maes	x
Anonymous	Hey man this is not a very good wad, but DCK rocks. That was the first editor I used. 4/12/07	x

================================================================

* General Information *

The WAD has been tested to work with Legacy (v1.30 and newer ones), ZDooM
and BooM. 
The WAD file that has served as a guide is called 'Boomedit.Wad'. References
of the new enhances and functions can be found at the 'Boomref.Txt' file.
The utility that I have used to create the lumps is 'Swantbls.Exe'; also to 
embed the midi file I have used 'Musput.Exe' both from Jim Flynn.
There is included the original DATA file for any purpose. Also I have included
a HINTBOOK so you won't have any trouble during your tour around FERN (check
out the 'Element.Zip' file).
