- You need more than an R: handler to port a game play over the
- modem. You need a Color Graphic System..which BTW is already
- produced by Tom Hunt on CTH BBS 419-368-4413. The thing produces
- real color graphics gr.8, gr.9, gr.15 I know cuz I got it on my
- BBS too. Tom's currently writing a Alternate Reality like game
- to be played over the modem with Atari CGS. Of course, you have
- to have Bobterm w/CGS handler to see it. It also works by a
- Joystick and has many, many different fonts that load from ram-
- disk. Tom wrote a rd that works from stock XLs so that they can
- see CGS too. The only ones that can't have CGS are stock old
- 800 ataris....requires 64k not 48k.
