Java executable and source (35K)
Try a version written in JavaScript.
Download a command line version for Windows or Linux written in C (66K).
Download a version for the Blackberry written in Java (64K). After unzipping the download to a directory, you can load JMines.alx on to a Blackberry using the Application Loader in the Blackberry Desktop Manager installed from the CD that came with the Blackberry. This application has only been tested on a Blackberry 7520.
Download a version written in Rexx. If you upload it to an IBM mainframe, you may have to replace some characters, depending on how ASCII is translated to EBCDIC.
There is a version for DOS (compiled with Turbo C++ 1.01) and even a version for the ancient BASICA interpreter.
And, there is source code for a version written in Cobol (with no recursion, no local variables, no dynamic memory allocation, no pointers, and array indices starting at one).
