Don't remember it being a US Army source, but then I don't remember where
the source came from when I recall seeing it (in the 1978 to 1981 time
frame).

If one disabled the suspend / save game feature, I wonder if it would
compile and run under Maxpipe in an OS/2 Max BBS environment?

Current implementation (that I have) is in C....

Take care.....
