Well, you can play the basic game, sort of.  At least move things
around a bit.
The action icons overlap the text quite a bit, there's no help,
and I can't exit without using ^C, but other than that, it seems
to mostly work. :-)

At the end of last August, my old system was taken out by lightning,
and I've finally replaced it.  Our family income took a big hit after
I became unemployed, so it's taken awhile to get a new one.  I'm back
in school, at the University of Houston, trying to get an undergraduate
degree in the next 4 or 5 years.  I don't know if
a degree will help me get a programming job again, but it can't
hurt.

Would you like me to continue on the internal documentation work?
