I'll pipe in for the DOS folks...

I'd like to see the next version of Imagine PC:

1) To be compiled with a compiler that would allow Imagine to coexist 
with EMM386.EXE, and or Windows.  Or for that matter, a bonafide Windows 
version... (I won't hold my breath though)

2) To have a more robust DXF translation capabilities.  DXF is hardly a 
standard and always seems to choke for some reason or another. 

3) Support for more graphic formats for bitmaps.  Various TGA formats, 
BMP's, GIF's, JPG's and so on...

4) Release of the hook information for textures and effects so we can 
play with them and add to the "neat stuff".  (This is actually for both 
systems)

5) A Texture preview utility to assist in the manipulation of the various 
parametets.  I guess like forge (which I've not seen).  They exist for 
freeware DOS raytracers (POV, VIVID), shouldnt be hard to do.  Actaull I 
think this is in the works...  Can Anybody confirm this?
