Chaos lives on, but the name is dead.  :(  I'll try and get that stuff
posted onto the Coweb, where it should be, but it will be a while!

The Windows version is simply two files combined into hanoi.zip:

	squeak.image  (same as with Linux)
	hanoi.exe	(squeak.exe, renamed)


It would have been nice to put together a better Windows distribution
system, but I certainly never worked on it and nobody sent me any
patches.


The Mac version was some sort of binhex or whatever file containing
squeak.image and "hanoi", the Mac VM renamed to hanoi.

By the way, I like to call these things "distributions" of a program.  I
haven't sorted out exactly where the confusion comes from, but an aweful
lot of people really seem to conflate "distribution" and "one executable
file".

Also by the way, the "julexp" distribution is newer than the hanoi one,
and actually does something useful (it lets you browse julie sets,
selecting the JS's parameter graphically).  Unfortunately, it, too, is
on chaos right now....
