and updated numerous personal notes on other programs. Also added a section
for game info on Mec characters, to completed shortly.
Ver1.10b [1/19/99]
More notes and details. Added 'HammerCrush' program and info. Separated Mec
Attacks from Mec Equipment and added 'Graviton' attack to the list. Cleaned

Fixed info on 'Shoot-All' program and 'Graviton' attack. Removed description
of 'Maelstrom' attack since I didn't have descriptions for the others. Added
more detailed info on several Mec characters. Added info concerning initial
number of Skill Slots for each body type.
