19 July 1993, Provo, UT--Version 3.0 of Don Yacktman's PacMan
game is now available for public consumption.

This new version is completely updated to take advantage of
NEXTSTEP 3.0 features and will run on both Intel and Motorola
architectures.  Some enhancements include NEXTSTEP Help, network
high scores, bug fixes, and sound support.

This version of PacMan is available from cs.orst.edu as:
pub/next/submissions/PacMan.app.3.0.tar.gz
and from ftp.byu.edu (alaska.et.byu.edu) as:
pub/next/PacMan.app.3.0.tar.gz
It is not currently available from sonata.cc.purdue.edu because
the site is refusing to cooperate.

A user who wishes to make use of the network high score server will
need to install a server on their network.  The necessary files are
available in the above locations as HighScoreServer.tar.gz and
are also available on sonata.cc.purdue.edu.

People interested in obtaining the source code for this version of
PacMan will need to obtain it as part of the GameKit, which is
available in pub/next on ftp.byu.edu (alaska.et.byu.edu).

Don Yacktman is a freelance NeXT programmer and graduate student of
electrical and computer engineering at Brigham Young University.
He maintains the ftp.byu.edu ftp server, amongst other things.  You
might find it worth while poking through some of his projects in
progress, the latest versions of which are always available in
the pub/next directory.

WARNING:  The ftp.byu.edu site is being moved to another machine.
If you have troubles logging in anonymously, try "alaska.et.byu.edu"
which is the machine you actually connect to.  Eventually the alias
"ftp.byu.edu" will point to alaska, but campus network services is
sometimes slow to make these adjustments.
