Thanks! I will try that out and see what Andy's pathes are like.

Hmmmm . . . I think I mean the former. Well, I am able to adjust the texture 
offset in walls via the x,y offsets. I was trying to find how to make a 
similar adjustment w/ the flats from w/in the editor. It's been years since 
I've done doom maps, but I seem to remember wadauthor allowing me to do this. 
But I really would rather stay on my linux box and use yadex.
