Hi,

I just had a stab at installing scratchbox and packaging frotz (http://www.cs.csubak.edu/~dgriffi/proj/frotz/) (which is the definitive unix interactive fiction interpreter).

I *cough* failed to produce a proper package, but just running make produced an executable, "frotz", that runs just fine, and I've used it to play zork I, zork II and I have downloaded but not played zork III.

The zorks are freely downloadable from the unofficial Infocom home page (http://www.csd.uwo.ca/Infocom/) - choose the dos zip version, and pull out the large .dat file from it.

I'll chase getting a proper package done, but if anybody desparately wants to play zork, or any of the other adventures, on the Nokia 770, then let me know.

I'm without PC for a week or so now, floors being sanded, but I have 770.

Actually very nice playing text adventures on 770, the on screen keyboard learns the things you want to type pretty quickly.

+ once I've got to grips with what is the real problem, my lack of experience in converting to debian, I can then probably do a load of builds of other stuff that will just recompile without modification.

Take care,

Martin J
