Plan for John Quigley

I've finished the port of Crime Force to Torque linux. It works fine, and the port required very minimal changes. It just goes to show that with a little careful coding, you too can make a cross platform Torque game that will garner billions and billions in mac and linux sales. :)

For the curious, in order to get Crime Force working on linux, I needed to update the Makefiles in order to include Doyoon's custom c++ files in the build. I also needed to fix a filesystem case sensitivity bug. Basically one of the scripts referenced a file by the name "crossHair.png", however the actual filename is "crosshair.png", and the linux filesystem is case sensitive so it can't find the file. Since this could presumably be a common problem, I modified the linux code so that if it can't find a file by the requested name, it will open the parent directory, read the filenames, and use the first case-insensitive match on the requested name.

I'm going to write up a short document describing how to get an existing game compiling under linux.
