Yep...it was pine alright. I hadn't sent the message yet. I was right in
the middle of editting it, in fact! Of course, it could've been my setup...
I'm using WinNT 4.0 (<- most probable culprit!)
Running Exceed to login at one the the local UNIX boxes
So I can telent to my student account
So I can use pine to send email and still keep my "real job" separate

Well...not quite. I'm trying to squeeze it into a 128K ROM, so I can
just shadow the entire ROM into RAM on startup. That way, I don't have
to worry about which information to save, in what format. I don't need
a separate "save game" routine, since the whole thing is already in RAM.
Just turn the power off, and...BAM! Insta-save! Battery backup is working
great, BTW. The gameplay is kinda sluggish at this point, but I think
I can speed it up a bit. All this for the low, low price of....

Well...I think Final Fantasy could be done in some form. Just not by
me. I still haven't gotten to the point of a single moving sprite.
AND I still haven't managed to do any kind of external RAM. :)
But I'm still chugging. I've got a new paper design for the 16K Superchip
cart, and will probably try to build it this weekend...
