Subject: Star Trek Re: Classic BASIC Games
I looked at the stuff on your site including
StarTrek (actually Super
StarTrek). Supposedly it was originally writtten (in
Fortran) for the CDC
6600 in about 1974. Shortly afterwards it was rewrittten (in BASIC) at Intel
to run on the Intel Intellec MDS-800. A few months ago I found a copy of
the source code for Super StarTrek version 2 on-line. It's at
<http://groups.google.com/groups?q=Intel+MDS&start=300&hl=en&selm=dfbills-ya
02408000R0104972147100001%40newstand.syr.edu&rnum=303>. Does anyone still
have the source code for the CDC version?

out my collection of classic BASIC games! Each game included in this
collection is an original, un-cut classic game from the '70s and early '80s.
Although these versions are TRS-80 versions, they are very similar, if not
identical, to versions for other computers of the day (Apple II, PDP-11,
etc.)
