Even with an old STOS game, you       could edit this table to add your own informations, that's how I made       some games run on the TT long time ago.       I remember that then, a program was made to automatize this operation.              Guillaume.              --- SoupGate-Win32 v1.05        * Origin: you cannot sedate... all the things you hate (1:229/2)    |
