DeuTex 5.0.0-beta.1

After 17 years of being dormant, DeuTex gets a little bit of extra polish and love!

An Ubuntu PPA with this version is available at https://launchpad.net/~nzatkovich/+archive/ubuntu/deutex

Removed features

• DeuSF.
• -man troff format generation.
• WinTex options.
• -fullsnd: now the only mode.
• MS-DOS and OS/2 compatibility.

File format support

• PNG support added, creating a dependency on libpng 1.6. It is now the default extraction format.
• Au and VOC sound formats removed. WAV is the only supported format for extraction and creation.
• Full sound lumps from the WAD are always extracted.

General

• Log file support has been removed, in favor of the user doing a shell redirection (eg, with > or 2>) instead.
• Arch-vile sprites are now extracted and inserted using literal names for sprites with the [ and ] characters in names (illegal file name characters on DOS, but not current Windows systems), and sprite names with \ are now altered to use ^ on-disk, matching the ZDoom PK3 standard.
• Graphics with a height > 128 and < 256 are now inserted into Doom WAD files correctly.

Build systems, code standards

• Real Autoconf+Automake build system to replace the barely-functioning imitation one. ./configure, make, and related environment variables work as should be expected.
• MS-DOS and OS/2 batch files removed.
• A malloc.h include was removed to allow compilation on Mac OS X, and is not needed by current Unix systems in general.
• Over 1500 lines of dead/useless C code deleted, including whole files and functions that were not used in the build, conditionals for MS-DOS and OS/2 support, ancient compilers like Borland C, etc.
• C99-style cleanups to use (u)intN_t types, bool, true, false throughout the code, replacing old defines.
• AsciiDoc now used for documentation, and building the manpage requires it to be installed.
