To run it again, edit the startup-sequence on disk1 so it doesn't have the
Endcli.  After the end of the game, hit Amiga-N to bring back the CLI and
type "rogerrabbit."

It should run significantly faster, but some time is still taken by
decompression.  Better yet, it you have the ram, diskcopy one or both disks
to 80-cylinder Recoverable ramdisks.  This is much faster than a file copy
to ram:.  Of course, to make a second Rad: you need to copy the ramdrive.
device, filezap it, and stuff as posted here sometime ago.  I found that
this makes an INCREDIBLE speed difference!

I have a question myself about the game.  How do you get past the 3?rd weasel
in the warehouse, you know, the one without invisibility pills nearby?  ARe
you supposed to make him laugh to death?  It doesn't seem to work!!!
