Don't bother... just do it on the copy you made on your hard disk.
Note that it is a bit of a waste to copy the entire floppy onto your harddisk.
All you need sa FA-18 and its .info, and the pix and text subdirectories.

I've not yet checked out how the history-log stuff works.  It is clearly driven
by the 'context' file, and so you could probably fairly easily have multiple
folks's flight logs by just having "context.me" and "context.you" in the
directory and RENAMEing the proper one to be just "context" before you start
the program.

Anyone know of a way to get OUT of Interceptor without ctrl-A-A'ing the whole
system?
