bug in snake
For a good time, try going into snake and doing
	!date<CR>
after the command exits, finish out the game, and after it exits,
poof! you're back in snake again.

The fix is easy.  Search /usr/src/games/snake/snake.c for "fork".
About 3 lines later, right after the call to system, insert
	exit(0);

A less then honorable person could exploit this bug to make higher
scores in the game.

	Mark
