If you wanted to integrate that with PjD's ASCII >object files, then all the better. Did you have specific areas for improvement in mind? I have a short list of minor bugs which I'm working on, but mainly it just needs more thorough testing on a wide range of platforms. I'll probably grab a copy of xapobjs and the ascii board patch this weekend and start looking them over. If Patrick wants to take care of the object side of things I'm not going to get in his way ;) >I'm not sure what we're doing for OLC though.

I think putting Oasis in stock 3.1 would be the way to go. Menu-driven ease of use is much closer to the spirit of the current circle community. The last version of obuild had an experimental menu-driven room editor that was just a front-end for the command-line interface. It had a few features that in my opinion gave the best of both worlds. I had plans to rewrite it to be more coder-friendly and to extend it to the other editors, but as far as I know nobody ever used it.
