Workman & Associates Adventure "editor"

#1 Post by Strident » Fri Feb 18, 2022 3:28 pm

Randomly looking at Dynacomp's entries in a Kaypro catalogue and noticed Workman & Associates "editor" for their 1980 CP/M version of Adventure.

Not something I've researched in the past, but it is mentioned in Byte Magazine (November 1981).
