David Given f67c98e239 Distributions are a pain --- let's not bother any more. Instead, we just tag
the repository and download a complete snapshot, old and ancient stuff and all.

A few notes on the examples
---------------------------

This directory contains a handful of working example programs that can be
built with the ACK. They're intended as a convenient source of test code
and as a starting point when writing your own programs.

They consist of:

hilo.c             ANSI C version of the Hi/Lo game
hilo.b             Basic version of the Hi/Lo game
hilo.mod           Modula-2 version of the Hi/Lo game
hilo.ocm           Occam 1 version of the Hi/Lo game
hilo.p             Pascal version of the Hi/Lo game

mandelbrot.c       A simple Mandelbrot generator, using floating-point maths
paranoia.c         An ancient public domain K&R C adventure game
startrek.c         An even more ancient public domain ANSI C game
                     (uses the FPU for distance calculation)
startrek.doc       Manual for above (plus in current directory when running)

Enjoy.

(startrek.c was written by David Ahl and converted to C by Chris Nystrom. See
http://www.cactus.org/%7Enystrom/startrek.html for more info.)
