Re: 0.25k program contest ***ANNOUNCEMENT***

: What about BASIC programs?  I have a whole disk full of two-liners that
: a friend and I wrote a few years ago, most of which have never seen the
: light of day, and most of which probably fit into less than 256 bytes.

Though I don't *think* the contest as previously described was intended 
for Applesoft entries, I can't find a clause in the rules that would 
prevent them from being legally entered.  The only serious objection one 
could raise is that their program is really the Applesoft interpreter, 
acting on their passive data, but that differs little from allowing an 
assembly program from calling monitor routines (or Applesoft routines, 
for that matter.)  Hmmmmm.......  I suppose a ruling is in order...

: How exactly are we defining "already published?"  A couple of my two-liners
: have appeared in a local users' group newsletter--is that enough to
: disqualify them?
