zeth - ZDoom Editor for Total Headcases zeth-doc - Documentation for the above zdbsp - Builds BSP trees for ZDoom Levels acc - ACS->ACC script compiler for ZDoom Levels
A few problems, though.
"acc" has a somewhat unclear license regarding distribution and modification. It includes both a EULA that sounds like a commercially purchased binary, and another license file that basically says "modify it, but don't sell it, and keep the notice". I sent an e-mail to Raven Software about it, seeking clarfication, but as of this writing, have not received a response. Both relevant files are attached below. (The package I'm creating as a heavily modified version, specifically for ZDoom.) Also, I'm not sure if the "include" files really belong in /usr/include/acc or possibly somewhere else.
"zeth-doc" is basically ripped straight from http://zdoom.doomworld.com/ but lacks any sort of Copyright information at all. So I'm not sure what to put into the "debian/copyright" file. I'm also not sure I did the proper sort of packaging for a Documentation package. I *think* I got it right, but, well, you all saw how much I messed up stripclub at first. ;)
"zeth" had a bunch of FHS-unfriendly code in it, expecting files to be in the working dir rather than in /etc or similar. I'm a little unsure I'm putting everything in the "correct" place, so I'd like it if somebody would go over it and offer opinions on what I might change or improve. It's missing a man page still, but it's not neccessary for operation. zeth has a LOT of command line parameters available, so it'll take a bit to document them all...
"zdbsp" was pretty much flawless, from what I could tell. No problems there.
Test packages are available on mentors.debian.net. Thanks in advance.
