With WAD-Directory, you can handle through your WAD-Files without any
TXT Files (TXT-Files take too much Disk Space !!!) and play them.

WAD-Dir stays in memory.

WAD-Dir shows you which Episode(s)/Mission(s) you can play.
... Graphics,SoundFX,Music,Skill,Demos are changed.

WHAT'S NEW:
===========
1) I killed a bug with the Parameters in Network/Single Game.
2) Without mouse, you can choose now Single/Net/ModemSerial Game with
   Keyboard, and choose now DOOM I/II Heretic with Keys.

MOUSE:
======
When you use a Mouse, you can choose a PWAD-File with the left Button and 
play the WAD-File with the right Button.

KEYBOARD:
=========
When you use the KeyBoard, you can choose a WAD-File with the 
Cursor-Keys and play them with RETURN or quit with ESC.

DIRECTORY:
==========
Whith F1 (or click with the Mouse on the Directory Line), 
you can change the Directory. 
You can handle through the Directroy with the Cursor Keys or 
write the full Path and accept it with RETURN.
You can use all Directions of the Cursors, left to handle to
'father'-directory, up and down to choose directory and
right to fix choosen directory.
With DEL you can clear the Path, to retype a new path.

LAUNCH:
=======
You can launch a Single Game/Network Game and a Modem/Serial Game.
Choose with Keyboard or with the left Mouse Button.
With the right Mouse Button (or RETURN) you can launch the
Single Game, it's not important to place the Mouse (it's a useful shortcut).
After Game, you are back to WAD-Dir (great !!!).

QUIT WADDIR:
============
Only ESC is able to quit WAD-Dir !!!

CHOOSE A GAME:
==============
When you want to play a WAD-File, witch you can play for e.g. with
DOOM 1/2 and Heretic, it appears a Menu.
You can choose a Game with the Keyboard or with the Mouse.

CONFIG-File (Important):
========================
To play the PWAD-Files require a TEXT-File named "WADDIR.CFG" with
following pathes and Options : (Example:)
C:\GAMES\WADS  
C:\GAMES\DOOM
C:\GAMES\DOOM2
C:\GAMES\HERETIC
-SKILL 4 -FAST 
-SKILL 4 -NODES 4 -DEATHMATCH
-SKILL 4 -DEATHMATCH -ALTDEATH -9600

The first line will be the WAD-Directory.
The second line will be the DOOM-Directory.
The third line will be the DOOM2-Directory.
The next Line will be the HERETIC-Directory.
The next 3 lines are used for additional Parameters for DOOM I/II and HERETIC.
  The first parameter-line is used, when you launch a Single Game.
  The second for a Net Game.
  The last for a Modem/Serial Game.
(You can insert additional WAD-Files, when you write it first
 in the Option Line !!!
 Example for Option Line: C:\WADS\HELL.WAD C:\MORE\HELL2.WAD -SKILL 4) 

For DeathMatch-Freaks : Use the Option-Lines for DeathMatch-Parameters -   
                        it works fine !!!
(ATTENTION: You must first configure your Modem with SETUP.EXE !!!)

Have much fun ! It's very comfortable !
