[Coco] BASIC game

[John]

Found it.  Page 171 of TRS-80 Color Computer Programs, a book from radio
Shack.

62-2313

A quick look through the code (I'll scan this tomorrow and post it
somewhere) makes this look pretty interesting.  It has the code well laid
out and then a good set of ideas on how to expand the software.

Mike,

You said you typed it out of a book. Was that a coco specific book?  or 
some coco related magaizine?
