I have tested the program on various Hercules, VGA, CGA, and EGA
compatible monitors, and it has worked fine, except that on the
Hercules and the EGA, the image is somewhat compressed, due to the
aspect ratio.  I have even run the program using SIMCGA on a Hercules
without a hitch.  I hope that the binary did not get corrupted in the
net.  When you are done uudecoding, daleks.exe should be 81728 bytes
in length.  Anyone who is still having problems, let me know.
