I had Telengard on cassette for my Commodore 64. Then, when I finally could afford it I went through the lines of Basic and modified it to use my new disk drive.

I had written a calendar for my VIC-20, but the wait for it to find and load data was ... way too lo-ooo-ong. But I did have fun constructing small monthly calendars using keyboard graphics.
