Well, nobody has so far provided me with memory locations for monster
stats... (hint, hint)

I'm doin it with Excel sheets where I've written down the amounts of
damamge a monster took/gave me, experience, weapons and attacks and so
on. Not finished by far, though...

Short answer: Nope.

Long answer: Maybe. Core will be in pure Ansi C, but everything outside
it, that is low-level event handler, graphics and gui will be Palm.

I've had suggestions from someone who is making a Direct3D engine for
Ultima Underworld that AR could be another possibility for him, but it
was just a passing suggestion (which I won't pursue for now... I want a
3d accelerated Ultima Underworld too!). :)
