Hi Milos, Got you. I wasn't aware of tthe history of Inform and ZCode so this is nice to know. Thanks for the correction.

The Inform programming language was created by Graham Nelson after the Infocom games had been released. It was created to be abe to create the z-code files that was produced by Infocom, and that is what you will most likely find in the descriptions of Inform. Best!

Re: [Audyssey] Has anyone ever been able to play the Infocom text adventure Shogun?
Hi Keith, Yes, Shogun is playable. However, what interpreter specifically are you using. I don't understand when you say, I am using the text reader from White Stick. I'm afraid that doesn't make any sense as the Infocom games were written in a language known as Inform and are played using in interpreter like Frotz, Winfrotz, Zoom, and so forth.

I am not sure, sinse on the interactive fiction page at whitestick there are links both to wintads, and to winfrotz tts. Logic would suggest winfrotz tts, but I'm not certain. Beware the grue!
