AVALON HILL'S "NUKEWAR" -- (c)1980

ALTAIR BASIC 1.1 LOADING INSTRUCTIONS

1. Set serial terminal emulator to send ASCII text files with a 5 msec character delay and a 30 msec line delay.

2. Start Altair BASIC from the ROM via SWTBUG with the 'Z' command.

3. Start it with the 'G' command, answer the questions to get to the 'OK' prompt, but then hit the RESET switch.

4. From SWTBUG, 'L'oad NUKEWAR_$369A.S13.

5. Alter memory at $007C-81 to be:
	$007C  36
	$007D  9A
	$007E  36
	$007F  9A
	$0080  36
	$0081  9A

6. Enter 'G' to warm start BASIC, then 'RUN' to start the game.

Note: the BASIC listing is also provided, mainly for "educational" purposes.  One can load the BASIC source file once inside BASIC, with a character delay of 15 msec and a line delay of 300 msec, but it's not recommended.  The main reasons are that a) the S13 file is faster, even though it's a bit more than twice the size of the BASIC source file, and b) you get a more reliable load.
