This little tool gives you an insight into the inner

workings and hidden secrets of the classic INFOCOM (tm) text
|
|
adventures.
|
|

It works with every INFOCOM game, whether it is an old
|
|
standard one like Zork I or Deadline or one of the newer
|

graphics games like Shogun or Zork Zero.

Additionally, it can be used to analyze the save files

.SH AUTHOR
|
|
This program was written by me, Paul David Doherty, in
|
|
1992.
|
|
.PP
|
|
Some ideas incorporated in this program came from other
|
|
people involved with INFOCOM interpreters and debuggers,
|
|
especially Mark Howell, Mike Threepoint, and Paul Smith.
|
|
Sascha Wildner sent me some bug reports. Thanks a lot.
|
|

|
|
you can contact me via Email. My address:

This man page created from PDD's preformatted DebugTool.man by B. Watson,

|
.SH COPYRIGHTS
|
|
This program is freely distributable. However, it is not in
|
|
the Public Domain, so please don't distribute modified
|
|
versions without notifying me.
|
|
.SH BUGS
|
|
There are no known bugs.
|
|
.PP
|
|
However, if you use the \-t option, you should set the
|
|
stack to 10000 (because the recursions will eat some
|
|
stack).
|
|
.PP
|
|
Also, as the \-t option performs quite a few jumps in
|
|
the file, it can take a long time if the file is on a disk.
|
|
It is advisable to put it on your hard disk or into RAM.
|
|
.PP COMPATIBILITY
|
|
The program is written without using any Amiga\-specific
|
|
functions. I have tried to make it work on little\-endian
|
|
machines as well as big\-endian ones. However, I had no
|
|
possibility to test whether it compiles (and works) on any
|
|
system apart from the Amiga.
