Compile options

The game can be made to record a demo file (DEMO.CAT) by uncommenting the block in CATACOMB.PAS with 'playmode:=demosave;'.

There also exists an editor mode which can be enabled by removing the SAMPLER define at the top of CATACOMB.PAS. At the demo sequence press E to access the editor. Note that the editor requires and creates uncompressed level data, so if done correctly the level data will be scrambled until you open the editor.
