Partial results from CVS annotate:

1.1          (thue     25-Aug-00):     if (terline) {
1.1          (thue     25-Aug-00):     if (terline) {
1.1          (thue     25-Aug-00):     if (terline) {
1.1          (thue     25-Aug-00):       if (terline) {
1.1          (thue     25-Aug-00):       if (terline) {
1.1          (thue     25-Aug-00):       if (terline) {

But the CVS log at the time shows:

revision 1.1
date: 2000/08/25 20:15:30;  author: thue;  state: Exp;
Add the savegame.[ch] module.

So, in summary it will be very hard to track down the actual author.
