Description : [Note by the uploader: this is uploaded to

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.

id and Raven soft

Brendon J Wyber and Raphael Quinet
for the original, first, and best DEU.
