it is all right each one of us has secrets until the end of the competition.

it is all right too, all goes to public so anyone can see.

I'm a bit confused as to your position on this; anyway for what it's
worth, my idea was to have a minimaze;
+-+-+...cr
|N|N|...cr
+-+-+...cr
then create path, this makes finding the wall and floor easier (cell is at
2x, wall/flr is at x)
(x=-1,+1,-row,+row), then print using

mov cx,(2*rows+1)*(cols+1)/2
expandmaze:
lodsw ; "+-" or "wall blank"
stosw
cmp al,cr ; expand cr to crlf
jne addone
mov al,lf
addone:
stosb ; otherwise duplicate floor or blank cell
loop expandmaze


but it didn't give enough saving in the find flr/wall

this above way [maze like cell of 6 chars] seems too long; i now try:
a maze is one array where each cell is just one char

yes

I tried that but gave up when I found I was having too many bit
operations; such as:
lodsb
mov dl,al ; save
or al,3 ; test for connected
jnz
....
shr dl,1 ; for floor etc

still, good luck!
