I am in the process of writing PacMan and Ms PacMan clones for my TI Avigo
(PDA similar to the Palm Pilot) My biggest hold up is figuring out good
ghost algorithms. Actually, I would like to make the ghost algorithms as
close as posible to the actual algorithms they use in the arcade game.
Does anyone have any idea what the algorithms are or where I might be able
to dig up this information? I was told that Bill Bastable in particular
might be able to help me out as he's the record holder on one of these
games (Bill, you there?).

Anyways, if you ahve any information on this, please let me know and I
would appreciate it if you could e-mail me directly as I do not regularly
read newsgroups. Thanks for your time.

Regards,
Sam
