XRogue 8.0.3
XRogue was developed by Robert Pietkivitch between 1989 and 1992 for the AT&T UNIX PC. It is based on Advanced Rogue 7.7. Robert provide me with the source code back in 1996 and provided much encouragement which eventually led to the creation of this SourceForge project. He worked with me on this project to bring XRogue back to life. After the restoration of 8.0 was complete he made a series of enhancements in 2000 for the next version. Unfortuneately he never got a chance to send me these changes before his untimely death in 2002.
