I Made a Toolset for Java Devs

[wire_hall_medic]

Hey guys; I made a thing.

I really like libtcod, but as I use Java as a preference, I wanted something in the same vein for that language. I packaged up and documented a lot of the stuff I've made over the last couple years, and put it up on GitHub. I'll make a RogueBasin page for it soonish, but here it is now.

The documentation is in _Widler Suite API.rtf, and the .jar has a demo of most of the classes.

Lemme know what you think!

Randomly picked Room.java and I already found something to nitpick. You are using Coord class also for size, but I think it's a bad idea. Much better is just create a class for size that has width and height variables.

I use Coords for anything where I need paired ints which represent perpendicular axes. I agree that from a conceptual standpoint size and location are different, but I prefer to use the same tool for mechanically identical things. Of course, it'd be trivial for you to adapt it to accept a Dimension object.

Also, thank you for your feedback. A thread isn't official until it has that special Krice touch (I mean this sincerely, by the way).

Then you shouldn't even use classes, because plain variables can do everything from "mechanical" point of view. But I do get it, some people have "special" thoughts about programming. I think we all do at some point, but in most cases it's going to backfire on us.
