I'm working on a project to set up a sound font of the doom sounds. To do
this I need to extract the sounds from a WAD file, but I can't use DOS
editors because I'm blind and I won't get any audio feedback from DOS
applications. Anyone have a good Windows based Doom editor that will allow
me to extract the sounds in an XP environment?

have a screen reader. Deutex (http://www.teaser.fr/~amajorel/deutex/) runs
on DOS and Linux and is a pure text-mode application. Is that any help?

I'll check into it. The problem is most DOS applications don't know whre to

send the audio.
The situation is simple -- I just need the sound FX from the WAD file for
Doom II to use in a sound font setup so someone running a Doom tabletop RPG
can add that element to their game, as it's one of Doom's great features
that you can hear the sound of things off in th distance before you run into
them. I've looked on he web for someone who's done this, but all I've bene
able to find is someone who recreated a lot of the sounds (but about 30
shourt of the full number) as higher fidelity sound files.

Sure, but unless I misunderstand the problem, you could use deutex to

extract all the sounds, which is a single command. Then you could use
whatever tool you would normally use to pick through the resulting
directory of sound files to find the ones you want.

I run into problems.

Okay. And it supports Heretic, too, though it doesn't seem to allow me to
