Those of us over in alt.fan.monty-python recently received a posting
from someone over in the U.K. that there is a Mony Python computer game
available over there. What I'm trying to find out is if any of the
game experts on this newsgroup have seen it in the U.S. The person who
posted the article said he saw it for IBM PC and for ST, whatever ST means.
Anyone out there seen it in stateside for Mac? (or even for PC. In this
case I'll settle for PC, being that I'm a MP fanatic even more than I'm
a loyal Mac user.) Thanks.

ST means 'Atari ST'. The game I have is based on '...and The Holy Grail'. It is written with the EAMON system which used to be an Apple ][ program in BASIC. I would hope that it could be ported to the Mac. The game files themselves are text and could be used if the system itself were made available. If anyone wants more info, I can look in the docs and see what else it says.
