Indeed, Jeff Rollanson bought the SOURCE CODE of CSTal.

And he also has other programs from OxfordSoftworks / Purple etc.

I am not sure if the CSTal stuff is a successor of CSTal 1 as called in the
advertisment. I guess it is more CSTal 2.

CSTal 1 was DOS. CSTal 2 was WINDOWS.

So anybody interested in a CSTal program could buy it.

Interesting would also be the other chess program of rollanson.
