I'm definitely using the WHDLoad version.  Oddly, when I'm prompted to
save 
the game, I indicate that I'd
like to save in either spot 1 or 2, but I *don't* insert a floppy.  It
seems 
to save the game, but when I get back to the game, things are hung and
don't 
work right.  But after a quick reset, I can load from the position I saved

to (even though I never really 'inserted a floppy disk' (emulated or 
otherwise) into DF0:.   Very odd, but it seems to work!

What is the typical exit key, and what new quitkey did you define?

I usually just save the game and then quit the emulator.

In 'Carrier View', what is the big hand button for?  It's the button to
the 
left of the big A Autopilot button.

There's also another button next to it above the Autopilot button that
looks 
like a detenator.  What is that used for?

Finally, in Map mode, there is a button above the ? button.  Looks like
the 
carrier - what does this button do?

Thanks for all the help.  I'm really starting to get the hang of this
game. 
3 islands conquered!!

Congrats on fini****ng the game, by the way!  Hopefully I'll be able to do
so 
as well.  A few quick questions:
