Re: A85: Sqrxz 0.7b
my $0.02
I just want to go on record as saying that releaseing a program & source
for ONLY usgard is LAME.
some people out there hate usgard & all the crap that goes with it.
perhaps if you would allow a
zshell or phatOS port of the game. I happen to like the sqrxz game but I
am not about to use usgard
to play it. I hope for your sake somebody writes a program for zshell
that looks just like sqrxz
(perhaps even based on the source) but with the name changed so it
wouldn't be sqrxz ;)
