Did this happen everyehere, or am I doing something wrong? It uudecoded fine here, but I've noticed two problems with it so far...first, it hangs quite often on me (both when I use if from the desk top and when I run it from gulam). I haven't made it out of the bartering stages yet (it always hangs when I am moving between the first screens buildings). No bombs, just nothing happening (except hearing the keyclicks) as I press keys. The other problem is just one of implementation. The command line options are lower case only, so you really can't run moria as a '.ttp' file. The reason being that the desktop uppercases all your text that you type. The workaround for this is to simply write a little wrapper program that pexec's the moria code with the appropriate command tail. This wrapper can also set the SHELL variable at the the same time. -Todd Burkey trb@stag.UUCP
