The days when I got PC Hack 3.6 on a 360K floppy are definitely past. Now, they need CDs to distribute the Super version 99..... Oh, this is not a real message? This is Microsoftian Vaporware Advertisement? Lad, you paint a grim picture of the future. The fact that the game could become such a big monster that it needs to be distributed on a CD only is... er, outrageous. I prefur my Nethack as an Easy Download and dpkg -i. >Includes top 1000 most wanted programs for h/p/c/v Oh? Not just Nethack? Also 999 other nice programs? Well, that might explain it. Phew. I was worried fur a moment. >PROBABLY THE BEST h/p/c/v EVER! OVER 600MB Yeah, yeah, get on with it. What else in addition to Super Hack v99.x? >Over 9600 files, programs and utillities! Blah... OUT WITH IT! [... some of the less interesting contend snipped ...] >Criptography caesar(6) source code is available from the 'net (from any place that carries BQS). What else do you need? No one has ever been able to decrypt messages ciphered with caesar unless you know the exact key. It's the strongest cryptography package available, and all countries allow it to be exported, strangely enough. >Cracks (thousands) I thought you was selling a CD, not just worthless shards of plastic and metal? Argh. This joke is getting too old. >Cracking txt Sheesh. The CD was broken, and now you claim the *text files are broken, too*? Sounds logical. ::grabs the cretin from throat and peers deep into d00d's eyes:: Yep. It's going to be an unpleasant evening soon. You got ONE in the d00d evaluation scale, and that's definitely not enough to survive in here. Wrong newsgroup, pal, wrong newsgroup. Hey, think bigger before you say ".*hack.*". That might be very, very wise thing to do in the future. ::gets back in, sits on chair and puts his legs on table, leaning backward:: Ah, just like in the good ol' days. -- WWWWolf (known to some as Urpo Lankinen), just another lupine technomancer ICQ:4291042 -==(RGRNCA)==-
