     For anyone who's interested, the binaries are stored at
link.cis.upenn.edu in pub/NH3.0/atari.  There are 3 files,
README.ST, nh308bin.zoo, and nh308sup.zoo.  The directions for
running the game from floppy are a bit lacking, but it works,
from both floppy and hard disk.  Even from floppy, you should
be able to finish the game before you run out of disk space
(of course, you have to use two double-sided disks).

     And it's a complete version!  Nothing taken out to save
space!  It needs ~900K free memory, but even so, I'm impressed.
NetHack has been getting pretty complicated . . .

     One thing, for those who're planning to run this on a
color monitor:  Don't use the HACKFNT.PRG thing.  It seems
to require monochrome.
