Greetings, Tony!

The "Dragon" program (Dragon's Portrait by Chris Bower) is actually on the
same page of QL USER journal, June '85 issue, where I found that amazing
recursive tree. However I did not even dare trying to type in the dragon
program, because I gave it no hope to match the strange characters from the
QL's 2nd charset. Must admit my full respect belongs to you if you managed
to figure that out... Probably a lot of the fascination of that picture
comes from seeing how it gets drawn?

Must also admit since I belong to the www generation I have no idea how to
access a BBS. Could you give me a hint how to download "dragon.zip"?

Thanks and best regards!

Michael
