About a week ago I posted an article asking for a PD Qix type game.
So far, I'm still looking. I did get reference to such a beastie on
grape.ecs.clarkson.edu called qix.zip (Sorry, I don't know which directory)
but that is an slow ascii version of the game. I'm looking for one that
uses graphics (CGA or Herc). I also did get a reference of a program called
Styx (??) which uses CGA graphics. Does anyone know where I can obtain this
program or any Qix type game via ftp? Thanks in advance. :-)

Also, I just saw QIX out as a commercial package. Around $30 as I recall. -- ---------------------------------------------------------- David Barnes UUCP: {pyramid,sri-unix,ingr}!apd!dbarnes 415/852-2365 USPS: Intergraph APD, 2400 Geng Road, Palo Alto, CA 94303 ----------------------------------------------------------
