Great terminal!!  I still have one sitting on my desk!

Three or four come to mind.  I have;

	gebaca (This might be the one you are talking about)
	cent   (a centipede game)
	crabs  (these little guys crawl all over the screen and eat
                other windows!)
	postcard (a neat French post-card with lots of action for
		  your demo file)

I think I get the most pleasure from using the DMD with troff
and a program called "proof"...  There are other terminal now
to replace the 5620, but I wouldn't give mine up!
