With zmachine you can play Interactive Fiction games of Infocom
(NOT Interactive Fiction Plus!!!)
Usage: zmachine [ -p protocolfile ] [ -w protocol linewith ]
[ -s storyfile ] [ -r restorefile ] [ <storyfile>.dat ]
[ <restorefile>.sav ]
-p protocolfile : send output after script command to protocolfile
-w protocol linewith: set protocol linewith to linewith
-s storyfile : use storyfile (only necessary if storyfile ends
not with .dat)
-r restorefile : restore savefile restorefile before starting game
(only necessary if restorefile ends not with .sav)
<storyfile>.dat : use storyfile.dat
<restorefile>.sav : restore restorefile.dat
If you call zmachine without arguments, it trys to open the file
story.dat on the current working directory. If you call zmachine with a
savefile argument only, it first tries to open a file with the name
savefile.dat, then a file with the name story.dat.
