About Drugwars
==============
This game is a port of the DOS version (c) 1984 John E. Dell. There are many
TI-BASIC versions of Drugwars floating around... but I didn't like any of 
them.

Instructions
============
You are a drug dealer and have borrowed money from a loan shark. You must 
repay the debt within 30 days or you lose. You can buy and sell drugs to
make money. The drugs' prices usually fall within a specified range:

Coke	150 - 255
Heroin	50  - 140
Acid	10  - 45
Weed    3   - 9

Of course these prices are way off, i had to use them to accommadate the
16 bit math limit of the processor :( Hoepfully in a future version i'll have
all the 32 bit math done and i'll also be able to add 2 more drugs.

Note that you can't buy have than 100 units of drugs in your trenchcoat at
any time. In the next version I'll allow you to buy a bigger trenchcoat, just
like you can buy a gun.

Try to repay your debt as quickly as possible, to avoid interest. The 
interest is 1/8 per day (pretty high, huh?). You can also put money in the
bank and stash your drugs. This stops you from losing stuff when you get 
mugged, and the bank earns 1/16 interest per day.

If you sell too many drugs (25) then the cops come chasing you. I would 
suggest that you run unless you have bought 2 guns. Right now the fight
scene doesn't quite work but i hope to fix that.

Something disturbing i have heard is that a couple people were suspended
from school for playing TI-BASIC drugwars! I am not saying that this will 
happen to you- in fact chances are that it won't. All i'm saying is be 
careful- if you have a teacher or something that is stupid enough to pull
a stunt like this, then it would make sense NOT TO PLAY THE GAME WHILE
THAT TEACHER IS AROUND. And please remember, it's just a game. Don't take
any of it too seriously :)

Matthew Shepcar		for a math routine
John E. Dell		of course, for the great original game

Future versions
===============
 *	Better interface 
 *	6 drugs. This won't fit on the screen currently, i gotta figure out 
	how i'm gonna do this
 *	Ability to buy a bigger trenchcoat
 *	The fight scene will work. I DONT know how the DOS version does 
	this. If you do, email me.
 *	Make the loan shark the same as the DOS version
 *	32-bit math. Fix the prices.
 *	Reduced size hopefully
 *	Multiple saved games (?), High score list, Teacher key
 *	Maybe a Rigel version? Well, getting rid of the relocation table
	would save over 150 bytes!
