I have umoria from the comp.sources.games distribution working well enough
that I'm finally confident that it can be fixed up completely for the ST
(maybe not 520K memory, though).  I doubt that I'm the only one in this
position (or farther along).  So in a week or so, unless someone stops me,
I'll be sending binaries to Steve Grimm.  The question is what to do about
sources: the original posting was 18 parts, which seems excessive.  I'm
inclined to post ordinary diffs and the few new functions I had to add.  If
anyone has a pointer to a publicly distributable context diff generator
for the ST, this might be a good time to mention it.  At best, umoria is
fragile enough and complex enough that one wants sources somehow.  By the
way, my adaptation is compiled with Mark Williams C V 3.0.6.  Anyhow, what
do we do about long sources slightly modified from other newsgroups?
