+# IWADverifier
+
+This tool was created, as the original project by Russell has disappeared from the surface of the Internet.
+
+IWADverifier is a small Command Line Interface tool written in Golang. It is used to quickly check if a DOOM IWAD is valid or not. <br />
+It supports Drag & Drop support for Windows (and probably other systems, if it allows it)<br />
+It can quickly also check if your IWADs are outdated or not. 
+If so, it'll redirect you to another open-source tool called IWADPatcher 1.2, written by Phenex2, or, for the case of FreeDOOM, to the official Github repository.
+
+# Usage
+### Windows
+`iwadverifier <wad.wad[ wad2.wad ...]>`
+### Linux/Mac
+`./IWADverifier <wad.wad[ wad2.wad ...]>`
+
+# IWAD Support

+# Pre-Requisites for compilation
+- Golang 1.10 or newer (previous versions weren't tested)
+- Package "Color" from user Fatih (`go get github.com/fatih/color`)
+- Package "go-ansi" from user k0kubun (`go get github.com/k0kubun/go-ansi`)
+
+Then, inside the project folder, write `go build`, and that should be it.
+
+# ToDo:
+- [ ] Open the WAD to check if it's a IWAD or PWAD before doing the checks
+- [ ] Add support for NERVE.WAD, DOOM2 Master levels, and the Hexen Addon.
+- [ ] Probably a few fixes here and there.
+- [x] Color support for better readability.
