Divergence in Old Empire - fixes?

Now that Dan Gold has so cheerfully consented to sending me the
Empire sources (thanks tons!) and I've managed to (through the
divine intervention of someone or other :-)) port the game to
HP-UX I've noticed a couple of major differences between this
version and the version I'm used to.

Below is the list...

   1.  Where's the Food???  Is ANYone working on implementing the
       civilians and military EATING food???   A suprising omission.

   2.  What of the Announce command?  

   3.  Paging all information greater than screen size

   4.  Interrupts?  - anyone working on having it deal with 'em?

   5.  Generally cleaning up the output format of certain
       commands (especially "nation")

While these are not all omissions versus the version I'm used to,
they'd all be useful features!

	Anyone niterested in working with me on adding these?  I've
got the latest version (as of ?? Dec 20th, '85 ??) of the sources.

	Fun stuff!
