Just finished this. I used a screen capture from MAME as a visual
reference. I actually chopped it up a little to make it 80 columns
wide, so the "R-TYPE" letters are a little narrow.

I will post the original  W I D E R  one in this thread for those
interested.

Comments and suggestions please! Thanks.

but it really takes me back. A good nostalgia trip to say the
