 @PageName path
 @PageTitle Path finding
 @PageCategory Roguelike toolkits
 @PageDesc This toolkit allows one to easily calculate the optimal path between two points in your dungeon by using either the <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/A*">A* algorithm</a> or <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dijkstra%27s_algorithm">Dijkstra's algorithm</a>.
Please note that the paths generated with the two algorithms may differ slightly. Due to how they're implemented, A* will usually prefer diagonal moves over orthogonal, while Dijkstra will have the opposite preference. In other words, paths from point X to point Y will look like this:
<div class="code"><pre>
Dijkstra:      A*:
..........   ..........
.X........   .X*.......
..*.......   ...**.....
...*......   .....**...
....****Y.   .......*Y.
