        An  ideal  task  for the beginner to learn a  language  on  is  a 
        simulation  game  which is written around the computer  that  the 
        beginner  has  available.  For in that case,  there  is  complete 
        control  of all inputs and outputs,   This kind of game in  which 
        the player makes decisions based on the information available  to 
        him  or  her  available at the time), can  be  made  sufficiently 
        sophisticated  and complex so as to make writing it  an  adequate 
        challenge for anybody.

        The  techniques  used in writing a good game are  the  same  that 
        programmers use in professional activities.  Writing a good  game 
        poses  a  challenge that allows you to develop  good  habits  and 
        techniques  for  programming  and  also allows  you  to  learn  a 
        language in an interesting manner.  By taking an orderly approach 
        to the game design, complex operations may be clearly  understood 
        and  converted  to  computer  code with the  aid  of  a  language 
        reference manual, irrespective of the language being used.

        This product teaches the techniques for writing such a game using 
        the  STARTREK game as an example, and the BASIC language  as  the 
        programming language in which to write the code.

        Upon receipt of your registration, you will receive a  subsequent 
        update, hard copy drawings of the non text figures, telephone and 
        mail support. 

        This product may not be sold or distributed with another  product 
        without the express written permission of the author.

        The SHAREWARE Concept


                            HERE'S HOW SHAREWARE WORKS:

        The  Association of Shareware Professionals (ASP) has established  
        standards for its members and for any organization which has "ASP 
        Approved"  status. The ASP wants to make sure that the  shareware 
        principle  works for you. If you are unable to resolve a  problem 
        with  an  ASP  member  or  organization  (other   than  technical 
        support),  the ASP may be able to help. Please write to  

        The  ASP Ombudsman, P.O. Box 5786, Bellevue, WA  98006, USA.

        You  are encouraged to copy the floppy disk and share  it  freely 
        with  others.  You have the luxury of trying out the  product  at 
        your own pace and in the comfort of your own home or workplace.  

        After  you  have used the material for  a  reasonable  evaluation 
        period  (90  days),  you should either  discontinue  use  of  the 
        material  or register your copy.  Your support is  important  and 
        greatly  appreciated.  With it, Shareware authors are  encouraged 
        to  design and distribute new products. Without it, a great  deal 
        of high quality, low cost software will cease to be available.

        Why pay at all?

           *  You receive support from the author.
           *  You receive a CURRENT copy of the program.
           *  Your input and ideas help shape future products.
           *  A sense of pride and ownership in having honestly
              participated in the Shareware revolution.
           *  You help to keep software prices down by supporting a
              distribution method which doesn't depend on expensive
              advertising campaigns.

        Be  aware of the following restrictions, designed to protect  the 
        community  of Shareware users and to prevent greedy  people  from 
        taking unfair advantage of the trust, hard work and good will  of 
        Shareware authors. 

        1.   No  price or consideration may be charged for the  material. 
             However, a distribution cost may be charged for the cost  of 
             the diskettes, shipping and handling, not to exceed $6.

        2.   The  files and programs on the disks may not be modified  or 
             deleted.

        3.   The  material  cannot  be sold as part of  some  other  more 
             inclusive package.

        4.   The material cannot be "rented" or "leased" to others.

        5.   The end user must be told clearly in writing on the  outside 
             of  the package and in all advertising that the  diskette(s) 
             are "Shareware."

        6.   The  package  must contain a written  explanation  that  the 








        The SHAREWARE Concept


             disk  is  for evaluation purposes, and  that  an  additional 
             "registration  fee"  is  expected  by  the  author,  if  the 
             material is used beyond an initial evaluation period.

        7.   In the case of distribution via any telecommunications link, 
             the following must be done:

             An error checking protocol must be used.

             The indivudual files must be combined into, and  transferred 
             in a library or archive format.  

        8.   Shareware  distribution  is  permitted only  in  the  United 
             States, Canada, England, and Australia.
