Yeah!  That's a really super-duper incredible idea.  The Macintosh
(and other machines with bit-mapped screens) certainly needs more
text-based games.  We could even port things like robot and worm!  I
think someone should get to work on that right away.

We could even port vi if we did that!  What an outstanding idea!
