Hi Martijn,

Two authors I noticed today have "(UK)" next to their names in Infoseek, but my understanding is that they are not from the UK.

Scott Adams (as you may already know) is American (born in Miami, FL).

Chris Gandler (full name Christian Gandler) is from Austria.

One of his speccy games is in German.

Cheers, DP

    I should perhaps provide more details on Christian Gandler.

    As he wrote the ZX Spectrum Emulator "Spectrum" for the Atari ST which is shown in the above link, he also bundled his own "Schnapsen" game with that particular emulator.

    This is where I have heard of him before. :D

    Countries corrected (oops).
    Shame the contact link for Mr Gandler doesn't actually work, although I learned from the Run Rabbit Run advert that the game Cat 'n Mouse came with it as a freebie.
