Hi there!
I ported Hack 1.0.3 to the Atari ST and would like to know, whether
anybody is interested in it. Before distributing it I want to add
the mouse as an input-device so that you can play much easier than
only with the keyboard.
I don't know yet how to distribute it, so this note is just to get
some feedback on the issue.

YES!!!!!! I am very curious about the system setup you used to
compile it. What C compiler did you use? What type and how many
drives? I've been toying with the idea of porting it myself, but with
only a single ds drive and 360k ramdisk I didn't think it was possible
to compile and link the thing.

If you mail me a copy on disk, I will place it on the Atari BBS and wherever else is appropriate (CompuServe, BIX, GENIE, the works). I have already done this for the "puzzle puzzle" shareware game from Germany. -- --->Neil @ Atari ...lll-crg!vecpyr!atari!neil or ...lll-lcc!vecpyr!atari!neil BIX: neilharris CIS: 70007,1135 Delphi: NEILHARRIS GENIE: nharris WELL: neil Atari Corp.

<Instead of responding to each single letter, I received...>
So far I got 25 responses from netters who are interested in Hack for
the Atari ST. A lot of them suggested to post an uuencoded binary to the
net. But I am not sure to do so because the binary with support files
is about 300kb in size, and compressed and uuencoded it will still be
around 200kb. But if there is more interest (let's say 100 netters) and
no one against it, I tend to post the binary. Otherwise I will distribute
it via diskettes.
If I decide to post: where should I do it? Could it be net.sources.games
or net.micro.atari16 or what else? And is there a maximum for article
size so that I have to split it into parts?
I do not intend to distribute the source since it is compiler dependent
(Lattice) and I used some include files from BSD.

Im interested in getting it in anyway, trouble is im in england uk so posting disks isnt ideal.

I am yet another 'netter' who is interested in rogue for the
atari ST (binaries are fine, but sources would be nice too).

I have posted the binary of Hack for Atari ST to net.sources.games.
It is Hack 1.0.3 with the updates from Mike Stephenson which he posted
recently to the net. I hope that there are not too many bugs in it...
