Reverse-Engineers

Thanks to Jamey Pittman for compiling The Pac-Man Dossier from his own research and those of other reverse-engineers, notably 'Dav' and 'JamieVegas' from this Atari Age forum thread. Further thanks to Jamey Pittman for replying to my arcade implementation-specific questions with some very elaborate details to meet the accuracy requirements of this project.

Thanks to Bart Grantham for sharing his expert knowledge on Ms. Pac-Man's internals, providing me with an annotated disassembly and notes on how fruit paths work in meticulous detail.
