JZIP - current info

Well, I just found out the DOS compile of JZIP has hideous colors when I
fired up Beyond Zork - sorry, folks. It will be fixed in the next
subversion.
Also, you can expect:
- Intelligent file naming. The save file, rescord file, and script file
names will all default to: storyname.sav, .rec, and .scr where storyname
is, for example, zork1 or curses. It already works, just waiting for
other subversion fixes.
- cursesio.c, a new io module for UNIX boxes. many new unix boxes don't
handle the termcap stuff very well (at least not ones I have access to)
and although curses can be used instead of termcap, I think eliminating
termcap altogether would be great.

Disclaimer: any spelling errors are becuased I spilled a Coke on my keyboard
last week and it is really sticky. :(
