A more complete version of Lotus 1
a few notes...
I wrote the Hi-Score saver into 1mb mem so its now only a 1mb version but its still Hard Disk installable.
I will probably write the saver into 512k mem when i get around to it and add stuff like the manual and a README text file regarding it.
For now... Either START it write-protected or Write enabled.
If it tries to save on a write-protected disk it will only access the save routine once and never again; saves on disk accesses.
Yes it does a LOT of loading prior to the black screen at the start but this can be altered by pre-loading it all in the TOS file.
ONLY USE .TOS and NOT .PRG it'll crash horribly if you do. (This is also true of the original which is buggy for some reason) ..
Hope you enjoy 8-)
P.S Kill the 'SCORES.SCR' file and it will be re-written.
