Sooo... 20 minutes to do a B/W map shape and then 2 minutes to run RobA's script and add 2 new layers with layer masks....
The thing I like most about this is the option RobA has in his script (that I had not noticed before) for Displace, which is what makes the walls not straight in random ways. This really makes it look like someone just kind of hacked at the walls until a corridor was tunneled out....

Very nice. I can see use of it for a warehouse basement in an abandoned district in my current rpg. Thanks.
I'm glad someone is still using the script, I thought it might have been a flash in the pan!
Another suggestion is to run the script on two copies of the template, one with displace on and one with displace off, then drag the generated layers into one image. That way you can select what areas are straight and which are displaced. (on second thought, would it be useful to add a "displace mask" parameter? A B&W selection representation/channel that could be loaded before running the displace...)
