I still have trouble coming to grips with the fact that I didn't do this 
first.  I was pretty sure I was the only one with minor obsessions with 
both porting RFK to obsolete platforms using CC65, and the Atari 7800. 
I mean, how much more obscure do your obsessions have to *be* before you 
can't find someone who's better at them than you?

Seriously, runs great on my 7800 (using a Cuttle Cart 2).  Only minor 
detail that I noticed was out of place is that robot always finds kitten 
from the same direction.
