~ Craig;

  There's a file called GAMES.PAT in one of the libs with Kev's PPN on it that
tells how to run it (assuming you're talking about EPYX's Sub Battle).

  Basically, the file just says to use the commands from side 2 and ignore t2e
ones from side 1.

  Here's an edited script that I use for starting most of the games on my HD:

display c echo echo *                          Game selection echo *
---- --------echo * echo *                      1.  King's Quest III echo *
echo *                      2.  Sub Battle Simulation echo * prompt *
Select : var.0 if %0=1
    echo Starting King's Quest III...
    echo
    echo   Press (Clear) to play...
    xmode /w type=1;display c >/w
    chd /dd/games/kqiii
    chx /dd/games/kqiii/cmds
    (sierra >>/w;xmode /w type=80)& else if %0=2
    echo Starting Sub Battle...
    echo
    echo   Press (Clear) to play...
    xmode /w type=1;display c >/w
    chd /dd/games
    chx /dd/games/sub/cmds
    (ex sub >>/w;xmode /w type=80)& endif clrif

    See if this'll do it for you.

  ...Jim
