The Debian doomsday package contains a wrapper script called
"doomsday-compat" that translates between the general "-iwad ...
-file ..." sytnax and doomsday's own. It is the one that is registered
as an alternative for /usr/games/doom. However, curretly it only checks
for IWADs and I have forgotten to add support for hexdd.wad, which is of
course a PWAD. :/
