[net.games.hack] PC Hack under MS-DOS

kad@ttrdc.UUCP (Keith Drescher) (06/28/85)

Does anyone know of a version of hack that will run on a PC running
PC-DOS (MS-DOS)?  Either binary or Microsoft C compatible source
would be  OK.   

One final note:  I have hack for the pdp11/45 (which I still haven't
been able to port to SVR2).  Any one care to comment on my chances of
porting it to the pc under Microsoft C.  Just a note on system calls
in hack which Microsoft C does not support and ideas on how to 
implement them with PC-DOS would be appreciated.

Thanks much,
	Keith Drescher (kad@ttrdc)

I have a binary version of PC-HACK that runs under MS-DOS available
for downloading on one of my FIDO systems.  The version is modified
to use ANSI cursor addressing, but will run under PC-DOS, using
ANSI.SYS.  It requires 256Kb memory, and does not include engravings.

The number for FIDO 109/483 (Wash-A-RUG FIDO) is 703-359-6179.

At 1200 Baud it will take about 41 minutes to download, using either
Xmodem, Modem7, or KERMIT.  Telelink takes about 31 minutes.  The HACK
files are in a .LBR library, so you will need a copy of the LU utility
to extract the files, which are squeezed, so (you guessed it) you also
need to have a copy of the USQ or NUSQ utility.  All of these are
available on this (and other) FIDO system.
