mu/ex7.mu

# Cursor-based motions.
#
# To build a disk image:
#   ./translate_mu_baremetal baremetal/ex7.mu     # emits disk.img
# To run:
#   qemu-system-i386 disk.img
# Or:
#   bochs -f baremetal/boot.bochsrc               # boot.bochsrc loads disk.img
#
# Expected output: an interactive game a bit like "snakes". Try pressing h, j,
# k, l.
