Center, Univ. of Texas at Austin Lines: 18 TAKE THIS and gobble if you can ... Somewhere at level 16+ all hell broke lose .... first, the game did not respond to directional commands, then it seemed to think that I wanted to save the game and PLOUGH I received the shell prompt. The file was saved alright, but when I restarted, I got to see the old maze, and, surprise, the prompt "File-name:" and then, no matter what I typed, I got kicked back to the shell, and the file was saved again. What is going on here? I have seen this behavior before, many months ago, but this time I had all the right equipment to become a winner, SNIFF. Sooooo, someone better give me a tip how to fix or avoid this, please. Could it be that a ^C (my RUBOUT) has that effect ? werner@ut-ngp (desperation city)
