Doomsday Engine

First, assuming of course the "Open Console" button has
been moved from the tilde key, pressing Shift+` still
results in the ` character being typed. Easily fixed in
dd_input.c (change line 150 from:)

/* 90 */ 'z', '{', '|', '}', 0, 0, 0, 'A',

'B', 'C',

to:

/* 90 */ 'z', '{', '|', '}', 0, 0, '~', 'A',

'B', 'C',

Second, with that fix made, typing something like:

playdemo ~/.doomsday/jdoom/demo/somedemo.cdm

won't work, because it appears the Dir_ExpandHome (or
Dir_IsValid which in turn calls Dir_ExpandHome)
function never gets called from whichever function it
is that handles playdemo.

(Using -playdemo ~/path/to/wherever on the command line
will work, but that's because the shell expands the
tilde before Doomsday ever sees it.)
