Cool!
I've got a question though, how was the stuff gotten into the computer in
the first place? Not feeling very motivated this morning so I just ported
the following to VMS BASIC:
10-190 BATTLESHIP, Version: 2, January 1974
http://pdp-10.trailing-edge.com/www/lib10/0276/index.html
Not sure if most of the work required was the result of 'space saving'
features of the original platform, or if characters have been lost. There
were a LOT of missing spaces, and a couple spots were missing a ';'.
I was able to get it compiled on a Alpha, though got some wierd non-fatal
errors. One things for sure, it was intended to be played on something
like a DECwriter II!
