Dear Chris,

>Sounds interesting!

OK, I'll show you results :-) Thank you.
(As experiment, I want to port this game to J2me-oriented
mobile devices and to old 8 bit ZX Spectrum. Remember?
It was my first computer.) And so all doubtful people
will see high portability of language Oberon-2 in practice.
We very need new people, to develop this direction of programming.

But what will I say to my friends, programmers which work
in C++/Delphi/C# ? "Just try Component Pascal, because there are
no constantly initialized arrays"? :-(

And question to all. We know there are compilers
from Oberon-2 and Component Pascal to Java bytecode.
It's russian JOB by S.Sverdlov & Gardens Point Component Pascal.
Is it possible to write J2me application with these compilers?
Is it possible to write J2me application in Oberon-2 in general?

>I'd be interested to know your reluctance to read the data from a file.

The game is independent from BlackBox runtime. I work
with memory statically only (no garbage collection used).
Work with files makes over WinApi. And reason to compile
all in one EXE is such therefore, not to complicate work
with memory and files superfluous.
But probably I will be forced to keep resources in a file.
