Carlos,

KPacman is now part of the Opie (http://opie.handhelds.org) project - I should
have pointed that out on my web site but I was very lazy on updating my web
pages lately :(.
As of regarding your highscores request: I will fix the issue as soon as I get
some free time (again, I'm very lazy on getting free time) - as you already
pointed out it should be fairly easy to do (just replace the KGlobal::dirs
> ()->saveLocation("appdata") KDE API call with the Qtopia/Opie equivalent).
I'm also cc'ing this to the Opie mailing list in hope that some of the fine
Opie developers will be faster than me on fixing Kpacman (Harlekin, are you
reading this ? :) ).

Regards,
Catalin.
