I'd like to thank...

I am new to this newsgroup, although I have already posted a few times.
I originally came here looking for a FAQ to tell me where I could find
a new interpreter for my TOI I games. I hadn't touched them in quite
some time, and what I always disliked was the lack of a history and not
being able to resize the console window to PAL format.

So now I found Infocom by the InfoTaskForce and also a compiler called
Inform to boot. I thought I'd like to congratulate and thank these
people for the work they've done. Graham Nelson for Inform and Werther
Pirani for the Amiga port, and the anonymous people behind the
InfoTaskForce for their 'Infocom' interpreter and especially David Kinder
for the tremendous job he did on the Amiga port (though I don't know what
exactly is his and what the ITF's part). The program is completely
Amiga-ised and does everything one could wish for.

Amigans who still play their Infocom games the old way should get
this program. It supports the features mentioned above (window resizing
and history), but also an AmigaGuide helpsystem, proportional fonts,
shortcuts for often used commands and lots more I forgot.
