Wow, lots of discussion on here... let me pick through it all.

First...let me know your names, guys, so I can add you to the tester credits. Otherwise I'll just put your screen name from the forums here.

The zip that I'm currently hosting...the reason there's so much stuff in it was because it is in testing right now, and you guys are basically the only audience. I threw everything in there (including the kitchen sink) with the hope that everyone could look at everything that was done and do whatever they wanted with it.

I will be taking the DosBox installer out, though it is legal to distribute it. The source code will be in a separate .zip inside the main .zip. The font editor will be removed. The documentation is going to be a .pdf but I can throw a text copy in there too. The batchfile isn't necessary anymore because everything's in the .EXE, so that solves that issue.

The COMPNAME.DAT and COMPRANK.DAT files, along with QUOTES.DAT, are not going to be integrated into the game because they are meant for the users to add/edit them however they wish.

The game itself runs without any .TPU files being present, so I won't include those at all. The exception would be the version of the enhanced CRT unit I used, which is freely distributable and will be included with the source. As for that CRT unit, the main reason I used it was for enhanced keyboard key reads, not the TP200 runtime issue.

The archive will be .zip so that non-tech savvy users can use it. BTW, I use WinRAR to archive, so a .rar is also possible.

I'm working on the documentation right now while testing some fixes from last night. I'll keep you guys posted.
