The binary versions of these games exit to the DOS prompt if DISK FULL
is encountered while saving a game. Here's what to do if you want to
preserve your game:
(1) Don't panic. (I.e. Don't reboot!)
(2) Insert a disk with free space or delete files to make room.
(3) Type:
CALL -151
2BE2:1
1B14G
(4) Wait for the game to save to disk.
(5) Now reboot, restart the game, and load the saved game.
Ah, now I've put this hack on the internet, I won't lose it!
