Yet I wrote a text file/source file that seemed to help a lot of people. Perhaps you could format it to 40 columns and include it, or add similar documentation for your program. Whichever you think would encourage more C64 programmers to come over to our side. Since C64 users are a bit cavalier about piracy, and most of them will be expecting it to come with a complete game. So, you might as well throw in the Combat and/or Adventure source code too if you can, maybe add some incentive to download by including a game most people don't already have. Or if you want to be as legit as possible, maybe you could use Okie Dokie, Oystron, or Dark Mage. Preferably one where the source code is freely available. And if you've got the room, FTSFX or any other 2600-side programming utilities. -- Archives updated once/day at http://www.biglist.com/lists/stella/archives/ Unsubscribing and other info at http://www.biglist.com/lists/stella/stella.html
