I perused the code - oops! Should have heeded the author's advice. Sure
enough my typed in code was good enough, my ancient text gaming skills
were what were lacking. The solution is entirely encompassed by that
little paragraph about the treasure, the pirate, and the passages. I
have to differ with the author on one thing though, I really enjoyed
finding the solution through both code and play.
Make no mistake, Quest is not Adventure, it is much smaller and simpler,
but it's still fun and given that it ran in less than 7k, it's pretty fun.
Reading the source, I noticed too many things familiar, and I'm pretty
sure a C=64 version was done, later translated in Italian somewhere mid-80s.
This imply that a C=64 basic (that is, 8K m$ basic) version existed.
Best regards from Italy,
