I have uploaded to SIMTEL20: pd1:<msdos.education> CORWP17.ZIP CoreWar Plus V1.7 game environment (textmode) CoreWar Plus Version 1.7 is a textmode-only implementation of A.K. Dewdney's game COREWARS introduced in Scientific American. In CORWARS, programs written in the assembly-style Redcode language fight each other in a simulated, circular memory array ("Core"). CoreWar Plus is a menu-driven environment for writing, debugging and running battle programs. It features support for all standard Redcode instructions (incl. SPL, PCT) and addressing modes (incl. autoincrement, -decrement) plus stack-based instructions. The number of programs and subprocesses that the interpreter can run simultaneously is limited only by available memory. Version 1.7 also includes a Redcode preprocessor that allows label-based addressing and symbol definitions. - Stefan stst@cs.albany.edu
