well, the api has various routines that let you work with very little register and stack head-aches...though it would be a bit slower that way, but it would be faster than doing the math in basic

Well all it is in BASIC is

N+I->N:O+J->J
If 36<=[A](N+I,O+J:Then:-I->I:-J->J:End

Note, these aren't the acual vars I used in the game

but that's it... hmm...

well, I'd feel bad sending a copy out without permission, but can you work on each individual area?  Tr1p1ea will surely release it soon.
