Dork? That's the name of the game? I think you need a better name.

Anyway, that aside... Good luck! (what the heck i thought they were still on java 2...)

It's short for "Dungeons of Relentless Killing" - does that sound better? Besides, I guess I can't speak for all roguelike players, but I for one am willing to admit that playing (and especially developing) such games is a rather dorky pastime

I was thinking it was some sort of wordplay on 'Zork' - wasn't that some sort of adventure game?

Yeah, Zork was an adventure game... no, I wasn't thinking of Zork at all when I came up with the name!

Say, anyone know of a decent free XML editor for Linux? I looked around but couldn't really come up with much... I want to start on some data files, just so the player isn't always Ed, the elven archer, fighting against the same 2 monsters every time
