As it +requires a genuine CGA card, it didn't work on modern PCs. In 1998 a new +version was created by Andrew Jenner which runs on all PCs with CGA or +better and, whilst retaining all the atmosphere and playability of the +original, has many new features. + +In 2000 it was ported to several Unix-like architectures by Maxim Sobolev. +Currently it supports FreeBSD, using either VGL or SDL library, and Linux using +SDL library. + +WWW: http://www.digger.org/ |
