When the Mac first reared its little beige head, there was a
very cool game called Chipwits, in which you programmed a
robot to navigate different mazes using a symbolic programming
language represented by different icons.  It was an amazing
tool for teaching basic programming to kids.  Unfortunately,
my version didn't run past the first ROM upgrade and I've long
since lost the binary.  I don't even remember who published
it.  Can anyone enlighten me as to who originally put it out
and why they didn't write ports for the newer Macs?
