This is a few words concerning the status of PC HACK 1.0.2.
I have a preliminary version I just sent out to a few people for
evaluation and bug finding. PC HACK 1.0.2 will require 320K
of ram, MSDOS 2.x and above, 2 floppies or a hard disk, the ANSI.SYS
driver. I've switched to ANSI for two reasons -- I will only have
to maintain 1 version and, I used the Microsoft C compiler so
might not be able to use the Lattice TIP package (I haven't checked
yet but it doesn't look like it).

Since I will be away during July, there should be enough time
for fixing any bugs that get reported and also updating to
version 1.0.3 if there are not too many changes to be made.
By changing to Microsoft, new versions should appear much more
quickly after the release of the official version.

So, if you want the latest PC HACK and don't mind waiting until
the first week of August, it will be ready then.

For people who have played the previous versions, now is your
chance to send me mail telling my what you like/dislike/want_to_change
about PC HACK. I realize color would be a great addition, so if
you have any ideas, let me know how you think it should be done.

Have a good summer,
