Short: Infocom game interpreter
Author: kinder@teaching.physics.ox.ac.uk
Uploader: kinder@teaching.physics.ox.ac.uk
Type: game/role
Frotz is a new and very fast Infocom interpreter. The MS-DOS version was
written by Stefan Jokisch, and this Amiga version by David Kinder. The
feature list is:
- timed input ('Border Zone')
- built-in graphic font ('Beyond Zork')
- mouse support ('Beyond Zork')
- function key support including number pad keys ('Beyond Zork')
- command line editing
- command line history
- small save files (Zip 2.0 format is still understood)
- switch for setting the Tandy bit
- colour
- sound effects ('Lurking Horror' and 'Sherlock')
- cheat functions
- support for V7 and V8 games
- multiple UNDO (via hot key, even for old V1 to V4 games)
- input line recording and playback (via hot key)
- support for European characters ('Zork I German')
- underlined, reverse and boldface text
- fast performance without virtual memory
- full standard 0.2 support (as defined by Graham Nelson)
This program replaces my previous port of an Infocom interpreter to the Amiga
(Amiga Infocom).
