Description             : These are the id QuakeII Level Compiling
                        : tools converted (Compiled actually) for linux
                        : i486+ archetectures. So far I havn't done
			: much more than create some makefiles with
			: the proper optimizations... and from 
			: what you've seen it's most likely very 
			: obvious that I don't really know what the
			: hell I'm doing :) I'm learning though and 
			: that's what counts right? But I digress,
			: I tend to ramble a little
INSTALLATION and stuff	: There is a pre-compiled copy of the tools in
			: /bin 	
			: a.1) copy these to /quake2/baseq2
			: b.1) type: full <mapname>
				or
			: a.2) type: ReCompile.sh to run the make script
			: b.2) copy the files contained in /OUT dir to
			       /quake2/baseq2 (plus /bin/full)
				or 
			: a.3) goto each directory and manually make
			: b.3) I appear to be rambling again.

Future Version Plans	: Next time I get a chance, I am going to
			: dig into the code and attempt to make
			: some hand optimizations here and there
			: possible increase the speed even more..
			: if anyone else is doing this, I'd love
			: to see what you come up with.

Additional Credits to   : All the people at ID Software for the
                        : Most awesome game/levels/tools/everything!

PS                      : If anyone else cares to/wants to/ feel free
			: to add to/mangle/re-arrange the stuff I've done
			: here to make it more portable.. after all
			: this is actually some of my first steps into
			: linux programming and makefiles (Ya I know,
			: I've been using DOS/Win tooooo long :)
			: I'd love to be informed on tricks and stuff
			: cause setting up these makefiles seemed
			: overly time-consuming.

Version                 : 1.0
Editor(s) used          : pico / vi
Known Bugs              : 1) I have absolutely no idea if this'll work
			: 2) These seem somewhat slower than the Win version
			:    by a factor of about 32%. However, the
			:    processor that my linux box runs on is a 
			:    p120 (40Meg)oclocked to 133, and my Win box
			:    is a p200mmx 72M. Using a direct linear 
			:    difference between the clock speed you get 
			:    33.5%. Now I know that this is not a proper 
			:    indicator of code performance, but it at
			:    least explains to me where some of the 
			:    execution speed difference is coming from
			:    I intend to figure out profiling and stuff
			:    when I go back over the code and that'll
			:    help give me a more proper benchmark...
			:    eh? I'm rambling again

			: 3) For some reason, the program waits till its 100% 
			:    done with a pass before printing out any status
			:    I imagine it has to do with the way the program
			:    usees threads.
			: 4) For some unknown reason, after I've run a bunch 
			:    of things, qrad3 segments (like squake did)..
			:    my only explanation is that some application
			:    is memory leaking and its causing problems...
			:    I'll be looking into this a little
			: anywhere but on my system :)
