	Hmm.. if it's that easy, I should use it for my game. Right now, all
the levels are loaded randomly, and all the character data is all static.
Might be easier to work everything if it can be loaded on the fly... In fact,
a tutorial on plug-ins and such might be a good idea for the LGDC homepage.
Anyone have one?
