Subject: New web-page: "Bugs in Specific JSW Games"
Now that I've got my own PC, I've started to play through all the
MM/JSW games in chronological order - so far I've played the original
Manic Miner (both editions) and the original Jet Set Willy (with a
toilet-time of 8:33am, which would have been considerably better had
I not forgotten to take the items in "The Hall" and "The Front Door",
forcing me to go up the East Wall again).
I've decided that, as I go along, I will keep a list of the bugs that
make certain JSW games impossible to complete, and I will publish
this list on my website, with POKEs to fix the bugs. So I've created
a new page, using the original JSW (i.e. the four official Software
Projects pokes) as a sample of the format.
I've decided to do it this way because I don't believe in editing
other people's games for them, although I will attempt to contact the
authors of the buggy games in the hope that they will fix them - or
tell me I'm mistaken, as the case may occasionally be! ;-)

P.S. Party Willy (Part 2) is now 19/64 written.
