Hi Zac.
I doubt it's the virtual focus, sinse when in vf mode nothing whatsoever
keystroke wise gets transmitted to the application, ---- i actually have to
togle vf on or off betwene reading the screen and typing (though after
almost 7 years of playing text adventures, this is pretty much a reflex
reaction by now).
I did wonder if it was the game speed though, sinse it only seems to be
tracking some text character in put.
I'll have another go, and also try it on my desktop when i get back to my
flat on saturday.
the intro document and review both look great.
Beware the Grue!
Dark.

Hi Dark,
This doesn't sound familiar at all, I'm afraid. I use Window-Eyes
myself, and never had any problems of the sort you describe. Perhaps its
a consequence of Hal'sVirtual Focus getting things confused somehow?
(That ' in or'gn might be an issue, I have no idea.)
Also, reading the notice with "read notice" is exactly what you want to
type. Keep in mind that when the game displays error messages, as well as
certain other text, it waits for you to press C to continue and refuses to
acknowledge your typing anything else until you do so.
I'm sorry I'm not more helpful here. The only real advice I can give
you is to make sure that you've typed and the game has recorded exactly
what you wanted to type. (It might help to reread the second line of the
screen, where user commands are echoed.)
I do hope you can figure Fallthru out. It's one of those very neat
games, in my opinion, and worth the trouble.
Best and do let us know what you find out.
Yours,
Zack.
