I had a bit of trouble getting 'cadenza' ( the checkers program ) to run
but finally solved the problem.  It seems that by time I got the
cadenza.uue file to my machine all of the trailing blanks had been
striped off.  These are important to the version of uudecode I have.
The file should have the first line with 'begin' the mode and the
filename fillowed by a newline only.  The last line should contain 'end'
followed by the newline.  All of the other lines should be blank filled
to the same length.  (Strictly speaking the last couple of lines are
shorter, but that is unimportant.)  So to get the program to run you
should either blank fill the lines using an editor or fix your uudecode
to supplyu| the trailing blanks as required.  Anyhow have fun, it seems
to work just fine now.  /bill {the blank eater strikes again ...}
