Hence, RE-SRC (rand editor source) in the russian thing. The version on dennis_v6 is older(1975?) than the one on the tar Al posted (1982?), but much of the code is nearly the same. The code is unfortunately missing quite a few sectors, and some parts of the 1982? code were reorganized enough to make reassembling the 1975? code difficult. -- Jonathan Gevaryahu AKA Lord Nightmare jgevaryahu at gmail.com jgevaryahu at hotmail.com
