Remembering from ancient history, didn't this make the rounds to just about anyone who wanted to learn code? I think it was even in a DEC games book. I think putting this into games is safe, but there's another trek in games already ... I haven't played trek in a looong time, is this one better in some way than the one already there? If it doesn't get into /usr/games, anyhow, it can certainly go into ports. ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- Chuck Robey | Interests include C programming, Electronics, 213 Lakeside Dr. Apt.
