Jerome Fine replies:

While I have a number of versions of the source for SST (Super
Star Trek) which was first written around the same time, I don't
think I have the FORTRAN IV source for the SST.SAV and
SST.DOC files (well obviously I do have the source for the
DOC file since that is the source) that were also released
around 1979 as well. Those two files are at dbit under games
for RT-11 unless you want me to e-mail them.

Might you know where the FORTRAN IV source for that
version might be found. Also, I suspect that the 1979 version
of SST must have been compiled using V3.0x of RT-11.

Sincerely yours,

Jerome Fine
