Some time ago I had a copy of the Snake Byte game for my Apple //e. I have since lost the diskette (I've moved 6 times since those days). I heard at the time that Snake Byte had been public domain. I was wondering if anyone knows if this is true, and if it is, where I could get a copy? I need a text copy (that is, a straight, uncompressed text file) of the source, since I do not have a direct connection between by IIgs and Internet (no comm software or modem on my machine). =----= I read recent comments regarding Stellar 7 and Global War. I have them both (although I modified my Global War to actually be robust). They are both great games, even if they weren't written for the latest and greatest Apple //-series computers. -------------------------------------------------------------------------- Lyle H.

I have a copy of that ... let me see what I can do. I also have thousands of
other old Apple II programs, most of which I can't or don't use anymore. If
nothing else, I could agree to send it to you snail mail for cheap.

Okay, I now know who originally distributed Snake Byte: sirius. Does anyone know if this company is still around, and what their address is? Thank you. -------------------------------------------------------------------------- Lyle H.
