I have the pacmaze.bmp but how do I get it to link to the program?

Save it to the same folder as the program. That will usually work, but it does depend on the 'current directory' being the same as the 'program directory'. In the unlikely event of that not being the case (for example if you compile the program and run it from a shortcut) change the *DISPLAY line to:

Code:
      OSCLI "DISPLAY """ + @dir$ + "pacmaze"" 960,-238"

*REFRESH (which I had originally, but removed as it seemed to be unnecessary)

If you find that flickering is an issue you should be able to eliminate it by restoring the *REFRESH:

Code:
      REPEAT
        WAIT 10
        CASE INKEY(0) OF
          WHEN 136: newdir = 1 : try = TRUE
          WHEN 139: newdir = 2 : try = TRUE
          WHEN 137: newdir = 3 : try = TRUE
          WHEN 138: newdir = 4 : try = TRUE
        ENDCASE
        PROCdot
        PROCmovePacman
        *REFRESH OFF
        PROCbackground
        PROCghost(0)
        PROCghost(1)
        PROCghost(2)
        PROCghost(3)
        PROCdrawPacman
        *REFRESH ON
        *REFRESH
        PROCdetectGhost
        IF dotcount = 254 THEN dotcount = 0 : PROCwin
        IF dead = 1 THEN dead = 0 : PROCdie
        IF done = 1 THEN PROCgameover
      UNTIL FALSE

Thanks Richard - it worked saving it to the same folder - and no flicker for me
