Help me here please. I have been hunting for the source of search for ages. I want to fly through that universe again - curses and all!
We modified the source of our version at the Uni to make it a bit more Scottish and to include objects that had names based on local lectures/students etc.
My search skills in searching for search have let me down badly.
I would like to get search up on one of my VAXEN and show my staff what a real 80s computer game was about ;-)
Does anybody have any ideas if the source is still extant?
Iain
