Phil,

I have all of the source code from Bob's now-gone website, but not 
all of the binaries.  Building his games isn't easy because I don't 
own the required assembler and haven't ported the code over to 
another assembler.

The files are on my Super CoCo Archive DVD (www.coco3.com) which is 
going out starting Monday, but I could zip the whole Bob Withers 
folder up and e-mail it to you if you like.  I won't have time for 
support due to too many demands at this time, but Robert may be able 
to help since he discovered the missing assembly file needed for some 
of the games.  It's included in my collection as well.
