I just got word from INFO-IBMPC that PC HACK has been moved to the
public area and can be retrieved by anonymous ftp from USC-ISIB.

There is a bug in the program concerning the GRAPHICS variable.
This variable lets you set the type of characters used to draw
the dungeon, so you can use the PC's graphics characters for a more
pleasing display.  However, if you save the game, change the
value of the GRAPHICS variable, then restore the game, the dungeon will
be drawn in the old characters.  The same problem occurs for ghost
levels that have been saved with different GRAPHICS variables.

I will post a fixed version to INFO-IBMPC as soon as I get it fixed
and tested.  In the meantime, once you select values for the GRAPHICS 
variable, don't change them.

Refer to the other posting for PC HACK availability.
