re: NetHack on an Apple II
Well, as someone else has already pointed out, Moria exists for the GS.
And, yes, it's slow, but the reason it's slow is that it was compiled under the
old APW C 1.0b compiler using TextTools (ack!) or worse for output.
NetHack should be very easy to port if one thing happens: Someone actually
ports the Curses screen package to the GS. Termcap is already there for GNO,
but curses is absent. Curses would also make porting many other programs much
more simple. I would settle for a Console-only version for now...
