I ran across it for the first time the other day, and memories of playing the Commodore 64 version came flooding back. The website (http://xarchon.seul.org) mentions that it compiles on BSD systems, but the only binary provided is for NetBSD. If nobody is working on it, I suppose i'll take a shot at it, though I don't have any idea what i'm doing (yet?). I was initially going to make a request that someone port it, but that somehow just seems..rude. So, maybe my attempt will be successful, and i'll learn something in the process..maybe not :) - erik To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-ports" in the body of the message
