I am looking for the old old empire that was written under VMS in Fortran. It is much simpler and more dynamic than the newer versions. If ANYBODY out there knows of a source for this (in any language), PLEASE post it on the net. I want to convert it to UNIX V.

Decus erroneously distributed the source, they have since stopped. I wrote the original for a PDP-10, Herb Jacobs and Dave Mitten converted it to the VAX. I'm sorry, but the source code is not available. Please do not post it to the net. Executable versions for the IBM PC are available for $29.95 from: Northwest Software, 13928 129th Ave NE, Kirkland, WA 98034 (206) 823-5388
