- For all of you out there you have trouble uudecoding the Turrican II preview
- please note that I've also put this file to cco.caltech.edu where you can
- get it via FTP in pub/rknop/games.
- The reason why it scews up (assuming that the code has been uudecoded
- correctly) might be because your are running it on an NTSC Commodore.
