Just tried out The Glove FR2 on a CoCo 3.  Great game.  It's really nice
to see new software developed for the CoCo.  I may even dig out my CoCo
(1) just because there's a new game that will run on it.  Thanks.

p.s.  I can confirm that FR2 does eliminate the flickering on the CoCo 3
-- I first played the version I had downloaded earlier but not yet
tried, then remembered this thread when I noticed the flicker.
