Yup. BTW, I've hacked hdiff (posted ages ago) to produce new-style context
diffs (and made -b work).

As far as games are concerned, I've a robust version of Nethack 1.4.
Other ported game postings include robots, world, advsys and adl. Please
note that this version of adl supports >64K of code space. Go ahead, dig
a deep dungeon...
Sooner or later, I'll tackle warp.

I'm about to release a clone of RCS. Well, it doesn't know about revision
trees and there's no equivalent of rcsmerge, but about everything else
is there.
Other things I've ported include compress (true 16 bit) and sed (taken from
comp.os.minix). People around here are working on bison, flex and perl.
BTW, there's yet another undocumented MWC feature: try "diff -e foo bar".

MWC's msh or (probably) gulam.
