Sorry, but that's way beyond the scopes of what I'm doing.
I'll maybe do some very crude collision detection with objects, but no
interaction at all between the individual particles.

Well, there's a big difference between an include file and a patch. And I
don't intent to duplicate his work anyway.

Features such as surface tension are pretty much only relevant when
simulating water. But I don't intent to specialise my particle system in a
specific direction. I intent to make it simple and general and to make it
able to simulate many different things.
