rec.games.roguelike.development looking glass

As of March 31 2008, my ISP's USENET feed provider ceased to exist (buyout by another company). Since that date, I no longer have any access to the USENET. Therefore, I am forced to discontinue r.g.r.a frontend on Angband.oook.cz website.

If anyone is in the position to arrange for a non-binary, free of charge feed, I would be very glad.

Not sure if this algorithm is well-known or not, but I have a very
fast solution for raycasting LOS. In fact, I can't think of anything
that would be more efficient for a tile-based game.

The full description (including animations) is here:

It's hosted on a Geocities site at the moment, but it would be great
if people could host it if it seems useful (full page and attribution
please.)
