While looking for my WATFIV testing above to compile SUPRTREK from source, =
I took a quick look at the original SUPRTREK and how it was included in TK3=
SU1, it wasn't in original TK3.

The source code in CBT249.FILE038 won't compile with our levels of Fortran =
( G & H ), but will with WATFIV.  As posted before, perhaps 40 or so FORMAT=
 statements need to be added along with multiple changes as a single FORMAT=
 affects multiple associated INPUT statements, maybe 140 or so changes tota=
l.

WATFIV allows running from source but it has to compile each time as WATFIV=
 doesn't create an object or load module that is saved for re-execution.

Anyway, for those who can't wait or wish to experiment with SUPRTREK as ori=
ginally distributed sometime ( early 80s ? ) you can:

Utilizing TK3UPD ( only one I have tested )
Place the CBT DASD in the DASD directory
Copy with Replace the following 8 members from CBT249.FILE035 to SYS2.CMDLI=
B.

BPAGE
CPAGE
DEDUCT
RANKING
QDATE
QTIME
ST79INIT
SUPRTREK

I think I have those correct as am posting from memory, which waxes and wan=
es from time to time.

After they have been replaced, you will need to shutdown, I think ( refresh=
ing dynabldl might also work ), and IPL specifying 'r 0,CLPA' at the Enter =
System Parameters prompt.

At the TSO READY prompt:

starinit
starrank
startrek

Enter 'demo' for name and password prompt.

When someone figures out how to 'exit' or 'save' the game, please post.  I =
wound up canceling my TSO session, never played it before.
