Sorry about that... Before I sent a copy on to England on behalf of the
Authors,
I SQUEEZEd the program, which made it significantly smaller. However,
this means
that the resulting !RunImage appears to be 'encoded'.
It's relatively easy to unsqueeze such programs- Just find the code
that
is called on entry, and make it stop running when it has finished
decompressing
the original code into memory...

However, I'm not sure if removing the MEMCFasters will help you much, as the
demo gets nasty and jerky on Memc 1's (i.e. 310's), and will probably do the
same without the Memcfaster...

Hope this puts you out of your misery...
The Master of the Arcane.
