This seemed more interesting than the other stuff, so worked on that for a bit. With newest engine and tools, you will now be able to double-click on .amdl files to open them in modeller. At least if you are running Linux. To get this working, make sure to 'make install' in adonthell-tools too. You will also find that I have started prefixing the tools with adonthell-, so you'll have to launch adonthell-dlgedit or adonthell-modeller now. And, as an added benefit, when starting modeller from the command line, it's no longer necessary to pass the -g and -p parameters if you specify a model to load. I.e. adonthell-modeller adonthell/wastesedge/models48/map/wall/outside/white/out-IBL.xml Also note that all these changes are backwards compatible. I.e. even without renaming all models to .amdl, stuff will still continue to work.
