Do not use it unless you +are truly desperate to stop playing and get on with your +life. Since I have documented it quite thoroughly, this +will ruin it more than any other walkthrough, and even +contains some of the ending. + +This is an adaptation of Sean L. Palmer's walkthrough, with +better documentation and some improvements made. + +These commands will not work in every single game. There +are some variants, such as get/take, and this will not work +for the 430 point, 550 point, 660 point, 501 point, 551 +point, or 370 point versions. That means that the Windows +version does not conform to this, although the documentation +*may* be helpful. + +I highly recommend Rick Adams' page: +http://www.winternet.com/~radams/adventure/ +This contains the walkthroughs, tips, history, links to an +FTP site providing source code and compiled versions for +DOS/Windows, Amiga, Macintosh, OS/2, and UNIX, and maps. +Even with this documentation, you can *still* get lost due +to some contingencies in the game, such as backtracking to +compensate for piracy, dwarves, and a few other things. + +For those reasons, you cannot feed this through input +redirection, although, if you're astute enough, you could +probably write some mild AI code and feed this through. But +I doubt anyone would bother. + +I can guarantee that this version will work with Adventure +on the Web at Stanford's machine: +http://tjwww.stanford.edu/adventure.html +That is the version I tested it with, and I have kept the +original format that was used, such as five letter packing +and such that was output from the other machine. How close +this is to the original version, I can't say. +I recommend the Web version if you're running a 14.4 +connection or higher, since the Windows version is a bit +outdated anyway. + +Enjoy playing, and I'm sorry I had to do this to you. But +if it wasn't for this walkthrough, I never would have gotten +on with *my* life. :) + +************************************************************ +building /* This will take you to the building, a well + house for a large spring */ +take lamp /* This is vital.
