It's running on Windows 10 but there was a lot of work behind it.

The original version by Bill Buzbee used a graphic environment that was 
no longer supported by Active Perl.  I installed the latest Perl and 
TKx.  I then muddled my way through Bill's program and, by combining 
Bill's "core" with the new graphics parts from an update by Javier 
Abinarrate to get something that actually worked.  Hopefully, they won't 
totally change things again for a long time.

It was worth it.  I really like Heavy Metal.
