Hi Doug,
Regarding your query about "The Towers of Hanoi" game, it is still in the
QUANTA Library on disc GG01 and is credited to P Kennedy on 22/08/1987
Contact Dilwyn Jones (QUANTA Librarian) who will be able to advise you the
best way to get a copy.
Also QUANTA Magazine had a similar program from Steve Poole in Volume 23,
Issue 5 October/November 2006 starting on page 4. This had a short article
about the origins of the game and a full listing which is now available on
the QUANTA Web Site:
www.quanta.org.uk/membership/index.asp
then navigate to 2006 - October/November and download the file - in zipped
format.
OR I can send you an electronic version of that issue of the magazine by
email - in .pdf format from where you should be able to copy and paste the
listing required.
Let me know if I can help you further.
Regards,
John Gilpin.
QUANTA Magazine Co Editor.

Subject: [Ql-Users] Old QUANTA "Tower of Buddha"/"Tower of Hanoi"--source?
Can someone give a source of the following program/game:
Long long ago, in a galaxy far far away, in the old QUANTA library, the
50(0?)M creature on some dozens of diskettes, I found a version of "Tower
of Hanoi" (aka "Tower of Buddha" I believe): Move five (or however many
disks--yes, the hard type, but not confusers' :-) disks from one of three
pegs to another, one disk at a time, but without ever allowing a larger on
top of a smaller.

Thanks much,
