The MacTrek Star Trek Trivia Game (version 0.99) that I posted to INFO-MAC
and comp.binaries.mac a couple of weeks ago is not compatible with the
TMON debugger.  A couple of users have informed me that the symptoms are
confusing, since the game appears to work until the user selects a wrong
answer out of the multiple choice buttons.

There are a couple of possible solutions:

*  Get all of the correct answers.  This is the easiest solution. :-)

*  Remove TMON Startup from your System Folder and reboot before
   running MacTrek, or deactivate it in any other appropriate way.

*  Wait until MacTrek IS compatible with TMON.  This may be a while,
   as I don't have a copy of TMON or the money to buy one.  If anyone
   can tell me why the programs are incompatible, maybe I can fix mine
   without seeing TMON.

For those who are curious, the problem crops up when the MacTrek 
program attempts to produce the buzzing sound with which it indicates
an incorrect answer.  I don't think I'm doing anything TOO creative
with the sound, but I'll check again.

Please send additional bug reports for MacTrek to me as soon as
possible.  I'd like to make the program as good as it can be, so I
need your help in reporting all of the little quirks you've found.
