I have long thought about 'librifying' the sprites from the Broadsoft-
games in such a manner, since I now have many sprites spread across
several games, and (in MM/JSW-editing epochs of my life), I often
reuse sprites from my previous games.

I can't talk about R.D. Foord's copyright, of course, but it would be
cool to see sprites that have never before been used in games be used
in games!

There seem to be a lot of sprites from JSW II in rdfoordsprites.tap,
whereas the original JSW128 contains the sprites from JSW, _Join The
Jet-Set!_ and Manic Miner.
