Welcome to the first installment of a new feature of AC. "Treasure Chest" will highlight some of the classic files available in the file libraries on CompuServe, Delphi, and GEnie, and some of the best new uploads as well. This month we'll focus on some great holiday-oriented files in the first of two parts that will let your 8-bit take part in trick-or-treating fun, play a vital role in your Thanksgiving dinner (if things get desparate and you must dish up the CPU, be sure to use extra gravy!!!), spread some yuletide greetings, and count down to the New Year. I hope you'll enjoy this feature, and I look forward to hearing your comments and suggestions of what we might help others find in the online "Treasure Chest"!
