An interpreter for all Infocom and other Z-machine games
Originally written by Stefan Jokisch in 1995-1997.
Ported to Unix by Galen Hazelwood.
Reference code and Unix port currently maintained by David Griffith.
- Compiles and runs on most common flavors of Unix, both open source and not.
- Plays all Z-code games including V6.
- Old-style sound support through OSS driver.
- Config files.
- Configurable error checking.
- Default use of the Quetzal file format. Command line option to use the
old format. There are several differences between the old-style save
format at Quetzal such that converting from old-style and Quetzal is
difficult if not impossible. This also means you can't restore an
old-style save and then save your game in Quetzal.
- Optional speech synthesis and recognition through FLITE and Sphinx.

- Update to version 2.54
- NEW FEATURES
* Added changes to allow for compilation on a DEC PDP-10
mainframe running TOPS20. See INSTALL_PDP10.
* Added a means to cross-compile to DOS by way of
Open Watcom C version 2 and later. See INSTALL_DOS.
* Added a quiet mode to dumb interface to quell startup
messages.
- BUG FIXES
* Fixed several problems with compilation under macOS.
* Fixed wrong glyphs in DOS Frotz's Amiga font mode.
1/2 and 1/4 were there instead of the oe and OE ligatures.
* Fixed a failure of the -q flag to actually silence sound
effects.
* Fixed an oversight in SDL Frotz that prevented some sounds
from playing in Lurking Horror.
* Made the dumb and curses interfaces read the resolution
chunk from Blorb files. Previously they would assume
a resolution of 320x200.
- Update project URL
- Run spec-cleaner
