+This simple game has a long history, Star Trader was written by Dave
+Kaufman in BASIC in 1974. Steven Farber wrote a clone called Star
+Lanes for the computer magazine Interface Age. This version, from
+1997, is a C port of Starlanes for the Osborne 1. It is a very old
+game, but the code is simple and compiles easily on modern systems.
