Pat White (Thanks pat!) informs me that he is busily digging out from
under the backlog. SO i will post amigatcp to comp.sources.amiga
in the next few days and let's hope it makes its way out.

For those of you who asked about 'termcap for Amiga' there was
YAPDTC (Yet Another PD TermCap) posted to comp.sources.misc a few
days ago. It was originally done on the IBM PC, but looked pretty good.
Take a look!

Two game ideas for game writers: 
1) I would sure like a railroad simulator. You know, like the Northeast
   Corridor simulators for IBM, Apple //, and so on.
2) New flight simulator disk scenery. Revenge of the Grad Students.
   The only scenery consists of different university campuses.
   You, The Hero, have a plane with unlimited destructive capability.
   They, The Bad Guys (you know, administration, bureaucrats, MIS 
   departments, maybe some of the faculty) have No Defense. They 
   Are Helpless. You fly around campus, blowing things up. They
   plead for mercy:
		"You scum! You can't do this! You may have been a 
		 well-paid engineer in the real world, but here you 
		 are just a GRAD STUDENT!"
		 (That's how they plead for mercy to a Grad Student)
  They offer big bribes:
		"Okay, I'll skip the late registration fee!"
  They threaten:
		"I'll make you re-format your thesis!!!"
  But you show No Mercy. Their only real weapon: scan forms and #2 pencils.

  I would buy Jet with this scenery disk, believe me. SO would every 
  other student in the known universe.
