For the classic game, CBT file 269 has a version of the source program that
is 3191 lines long and includes the associated data files. There is a
reference to there being the corresponding load module in CBT file 135 with
the name "PROGRAM".
Somewhere along the way, I seem to have downloaded a newer version of the
source that is 4691 lines long. The comments state that it is version 4.
However, I failed to download the associated data files and no longer have
access to that system.
