Description:
The classic space-age stock trading game, text-only using ncurses. This is a port to C from a version of Starlanes for the Osborne 1. The original source is from a First Osborne Group (FOG) disk that I probably picked up in 1982. The author isn't identified. Based on comments in a TRS-80 version I picked up off the web, it would appear that it was first published in Creative Computing magazine.

For ports maintained by ports@FreeBSD.org, remove names and/or
e-mail addresses from the pkg-descr file that could reasonably
be mistaken for maintainer contact information in order to avoid
confusion on the part of users looking for support. As a pleasant
side effect this also avoids confusion and/or frustration for people
who are no longer maintaining those ports.
