An X11r4 version of Core War is available for ftp from soda.berkeley.edu
(128.32.131.179).  It currently requires a workstation running X11r4 with
something like 8-plane color to run; black-and-white support may be added
in future.

For those of you without color, a constantly-updated Redcode archive will
be kept at the same site.  Please mail me any code not already contained
in the collection.

The program source lives on soda in pub/corewar/corewar.tar.Z; the constantly
updated Redcode is (bundled together) in pub/corewar/redcode.tar.Z, and
(separate) in pub/corewar/redcode/.

Prior to putting together this package, I searched far and wide through
various ftp sites for prior implementations of Core War; I can safely say
that this is by far the most excellent version of Core War I've seen.
