UT Super Star Trek is a version written by David Matuszek and Paul
Reynolds, with Modifications by Don Smith and M. Kellogg. It apparently is
based upon Mike Mayfield's BASIC source, but it was totally rewritten into
FORTRAN. It was submitted into the DECUS library, and is famous for having
what came to be known as "The Thing". Variants of this strain can be
distinguished by having an 10x10 grid instead of an 8x8 grid.
BSD Trek is apparently a port of UT Super Star Trek to C from FORTRAN.
It was written by Eric Allman
of Sendmail fame and is still included in the various BSD distributions
although I believe Eric is no longer maintaining it.
XTrek was in comp.sources.games volume 1.
TREK73 was in comp.sources.games volume 3. William K. Char, Perry
Lee, and Dan Gee wrote the initial TREK73 in BASIC. Dave Pare and Chris
Williams translated the BASIC into C. Jeff Okamoto, Peter Yee, and others
corrected and enhanced the code.
CTrek was in comp.sources.games volume 9. It has the distinction
of being written in COBOL.
