Did you find it? Yes, it's two programs, which I found on Al Kossow's
image of the HP library tape. I've been putting together a web page
about BASIC games I've found interesting -- I ran out of time so
there's not much there yet, but I extracted TRADER and TRADES (thanks
to Eric Smith, whose tsbextract and tsbdecode programs I adapted).

If anyone else is looking for something particular, I could easily be
persuaded to add it when I have time, assuming it's something I can
find. I've got images of David Ahl's DECtapes, as well as the HP tape,
and a few other sources.
