The letters (as I remember them) are: Z: Zork, Enchanter, etc. A: Adventure games: Infidel, etc. S: Science Fiction: Starcross, etc. M: Mystery: Witness, etc. I think there's another one; I can't remember what it is. (I?) As for mapping the correct number to the correct game, the code should be on the outside of the game box. (On the "Macintosh" sticker, I believe.) P.S. Be sure to change the file type of the save files from "ZSAV" to "ZSxy" as well (where x & y are as above.) -- Name: Sean Trowbridge Job:Software Engineer Quote: "Moo." Employer: Visix Software Inc.
