I learned VI before I even knew what VI was thanks to
Hack, the port

if you like, I just played it last month on my IBM Model 5150 :-)
Thanks! I have found a copy of nethack that works, and It's pretty
recent too. Is there some
difference between DOS 6.20 and DOS 6.22 with regard to COFF files? If
it would be easy to
email it, please do, even though I have the one an older version may be
interesting.
Has anyone seen this: it was a 40x25 character based dungeon crawl type
game, a lot like
Gauntlet. Your icon was a happyface with a <^>v to indicate direction.
4 players each get
a set of keys (4 people crowded around 1 keyboard). I don't think it
was called gauntlet...
I had a copy once upon a time... I suppose I will have to write it :^)
my self.

anyone have the DOS version of Empire, Nethack

I had a DOS version of tetris too (using regular characters in 40
char mode) so I am looking
for that too.
Any websites that provide old DOS programs for download?
Thanks!
