Additions
---------
Super fast Grid drawing, good for people that like the grid set to 1 or 2
If you press F7 while in LineDef mode then the display will change to show you
how the level will look as if you are looking at the auto-map.
This can be set to default with altmapstyle in deth.ini
If altmapstyle is activated and altdoorstyle is set in deth.ini then the doors
and keys are shown in the correct colour, expect that yellow doors and keys
are shown in orange - sorry :(
