wadext2 - dump the lumps of a wad to files DESCRIPTION wadext2 extracts all the lumps of a wad to separate files. It does not perform any conversion on the contents of the lumps; it just dumps them byte for byte. wadext2 does with wad files what tar -x does with tar archives. The advantage of this program over wadext(6) is that the latter can only extract one lump at a time. deutex(6), although it is more sophisticated than wadext2, is less suitable for certain tasks. Because it doesn't try to understand how the wad is structured, wadext2 works well with any wad. It does not need the wad to contain a PNAMES and a PLAYPAL. It doesn't reorder the directory or lose duplicate lumps. PREREQUISITES A C compiler supporting 89/90 ISO C plus and getopt(). Should work on most reasonably POSIX-ish platforms. On MS-DOS and Windows, install DJGPP or Cygwin (it's free) and compile.
