Description:	[Note by the uploader: this is uploaded to /idgames for historical purposes. It's not an up-to-date tool. The source code is included.] DETH is a version of GCC DEU 5.2. It has been written by wad editors, so the features we've added and changed should reflect what a wad creator both needs and requires. It now edits Doom2 and Heretic as well as Doom.
Credits:	[Thanks to:] id and Raven soft for 3 excellent games. Brendon J Wyber and Raphael Quinet for the original, first, and best DEU. Colin Reed for his Binary Space Partition builder (BSP). John W. Anderson (aka Dr. Sleep) and Jim F Flynn for all of their suggestions, patience and bug hunting. Everyone currently using and supporting DETH.

                          DETH is a version of GCC DEU 5.2.
                          It has been written by wad editors, so the
                          features we've added and changed should reflect
                          what a wad creator both needs and requires.

It now edits Doom2 and Heretic as well as Doom.
