# Convoy Bomb
Convoy Bomb is a game originally for Sinclair ZX81 in [ZX FORTH by Artic](http://www.zx81stuff.org.uk/zx81/tape/ZXForth),
but now in [GForth](https://gforth.org/) using XTerm (or similar) with Unicode.
You also need
[semigraphics](https://github.com/mobluse/semigraphics). How to install and run in Linux:

sudo apt install gforth
git clone https://github.com/mobluse/semigraphics
git clone https://github.com/mobluse/convoy-bomb
cd convoy-bomb
gforth convoy-bomb.g.fs
convoy-bomb
show-cur ( if you terminate using Ctrl+C )
bye

Convoy Bomb is in Swedish; both instructions and code. Use without Caps Lock or Shift.
B drops a bomb. N/L means New Line i.e. Enter AKA Return. ZX81 does not have ÅÄÖ,
but I used 0 for Ö on ZX81 (0 looks like Ø (Danish Ö) on ZX81),
but in the GForth version I now use ÅÄÖ in the text and comments.
