+There seem to be a couple bugs at least in this entry. The first one is that
+when it does reach a certain point it crashes. This is in the function `J()` (or
+one it calls?). But sometimes it seems to not get that far, just showing lines
+moving back and forth. This is also in `J()`. It is not confirmed but it might
+be that the lines are drawn by `XDrawString()`, the last part in `J()`.
+
+`J()` has a `for` loop identified by `for` and also a couple `while` loops,
+identified by `R`.
+
+Since the game never ends properly the score is not printed either.
+
+It appears that the crash happens in more than one place. For instance it has
+happened at 
+
+```c
+XCheckMaskEvent(d, 4,&e)
+```
+
+but it's also happened at
+
+```c
+else XDrawPoint(d    ,w,g,(l.s+=l.a)>>9,    h=(l.c+=l.b)>>9)
+```
+
+In both cases the pointer `d` was corrupted:
+
+```
+(lldb) p d
+(Display *) 0x0000000000000001
+```
+
+It is believed that it also happened at 
+
+```c
+XDrawString(d,w,g,W/3,H/2,m,B);
+```
+
+in `J()` and for the same reason.
+
+The loop seems to be stuck in the call to `usleep(3)` like:
+
+```c
+usleep(p*200);
+```
+
+which happens to be in a `while()` loop.
+
+There is a way to get the code to crash. If you don't do anything until
+everything is destroyed (where you'd lose the game if it ended) and then you
+start to shoot your missiles repeatedly it will eventually crash. It appears not
+to be the case (though this was not tried as many times) if you start shooting
+when the missiles come down. The fact you can shoot after it starts that
+sleeping in a loop does suggest that it's not stuck only showing those lines and
+sleeping.
