Eamon source code

[Diane Wheat]

Thing that made eamon fun on the apple II was that you could easily modify
and improve it to you liking. Does anyone know where I could find the
source code for Eamon (apple or ms-dos)
thanks

Not sure what you mean by "the source code for Eamon." Any Eamon game
can be opened and modified on a standard text editor. What are you
trying to do, write a game or two perhaps? If so, are you using an
emulator or an actual Apple II?

Actually Im using windows :) just thought it would be fun to much around
with. What is an emulator and is it possible to see the basic code from
there???

In this case, an emulator is a program designed to pretend to be an Apple II
machine while running on a modern day Windows/Mac/Linux type machine. You
can get more information on emulators and how to play Eamon on an windows
machine by going to http://www.eamonag.org/pages/Play_today.htm.

If you want to look at the basic design of the Eamon Main PGM, visit
http://www.eamonag.org/columns/mainpgmtour.htm. This has a detailed listing
of version 7.1 of the Main Pgm with instructions as to what each line does.
An Eamon adventure will run this program while retrieving data from other
files on the disk.

My last plug will be for the Eamon Adventurer's Guild Online website at
http://www.eamonag.org which has tons of other Eamon information. Explore
around and see what you come up with!
