I take my hat off to nathan (for the obviously great coding, not the strange content-- although they *were* well drawn pictures in great Manga style-- I must respect that art)... the man who made Jill work on a 486... you were the guy who programmed that, weren't you... what, exactly, were you thinking at the time :???: lol
But anyways, I have made this code as tight as my (admittedly rather ameteurish) programming skills will permit. Perhaps the problem is the slowness of the "PRINT" command. I know that you can do it faster using PEEK and POKE-- could someone please explain this to me? Or point me to a document that can?
PS. It's not even scrolley. It's in traditional roguelike style.
PPS. Everything should work on a 486/DX/33. Everything would if Microsoft wasn't pressing us onwards, to accept their technology which they are letting out to us in controlled dribs and drabs... like it or not, Mr. William Henry Gates III controls the world.
