An implementation of the recursive backtracking algorithm that *gasp* actually uses recursion.
# --------------------------------------------------------------------
# Recursive backtracking algorithm for maze generation. Requires that
# the entire maze be stored in memory, but is quite fast, easy to
# learn and implement, and (with a few tweaks) gives fairly good mazes.
# Can also be customized in a variety of ways.
# --------------------------------------------------------------------
# --------------------------------------------------------------------
# 1. Allow the maze to be customized via command-line parameters
