New in version 0.6:
   QuakeWorld is ported! Resolutions are switchable using command 
line. I added an alternative way of setting the command line. I put 
in Multitexture support (I'm not quite sure what it does though, 
aside from killing the framerate!).

Detail:
  - QuakeWorld!
  - Made resolutions switchable on startup via command line. Use the 
"-width", "-height", and "-bpp" command line options.
  - You can make Quake run in a window with the "-window" option.
  - Added command line file support. Command Line files are 'TEXT' 
files.  They override the finder comment command line. See the README 
for more detail.
  - In the source code world, I rearranged the files because of 
QuakeWorld support. Consequently this release is not available as a 
patch (you have to get the whole source code).
  - Added multitexture support. Use the "-mtex" command line option. 
I'm not sure what multitexture buys you (I didn't notice any display 
quality differences), but it sure seems to slow the framerate down.
  - New icons from Virus.
