Re: Pseudo random number routine






Aside from simply winning (zapping all of the Klingons) SysReq-2 is the 
only way to terminate.  F3 will bring up the Help panel.  All other 
Function keys are ignored.

It's an interesting game in several regards.  It's a little better than 
a maze game that a friend showed me eons ago on a PDP-11; you couldn't 
actually "see" the maze but, like a blind mouse, had to remember the 
walls that you bumped into.  But the best thing about Star Trek is that 
it teaches that everything has a price: Do a short range scan, expend 
energy; Do a long range scan, expend even more energy, Move from 
sector-to-sector, well, you get the idea.
