Credit to Tom Ewers missing? #5

My name is Tom Ewers. Back around 2012 and 2014 I converted the AppleII Wizardry disks into Pascal "source" code. If you used this information to build this code, could you at least please give me credit in the Readme? I spent literally thousands of hours to create the Pascal code, and hundreds of hours documenting my efforts in the AppleII newsgroups: "Re-engineered: Wizardry III, Legacy of Llylgamyn" and "Wizardry re-engineering" -- for Wizardry I, Proving Grounds.

I recently saw an interview on Matt Barton's YouTube channel, where 2 people talk about how they remastered Wizardry I, Proving Grounds. They also seemed to ignore where the original Pascal code likely came from.

Hello Thomas.I will gladly add it. I am not sure why/how I missed it there because I have added it at the beginning of every text files within that site already.I just started a 3-weeks vacation and I am out the country away from my tools and passwords so I must ask for your patience, I am putting this as the very first thing to do on my tasks list upon my return on the 14th of July.Thanks for letting me know about this, I am all for giving credit where credit is due.

Hi Thomas. I have updated the main page README. Note that the text files for each fix already included the credits for you. I went through all my pages and web site thoroughly to make sure credit was given. If you find I missed giving credit somewhere else, let me know and I will gladly add it. Again my apologies for missing it on this Github's main page README, it was just a human oversight.
