I got this on one of the Glenside membership disks (I love free stuff) and I
tried it out on a GEnie Real Time Conference and I seem to recall it working
there, for the most part (as far as I can tell).  I guess the prompts are
pretty much the same for it to work.  It was a really neat idea.  Conference
games are a rage on GEnie (trivia, word games, etc.) all done this way - but
only the Macs and PCs seem to have the "front ends" to host them.  I thought
it would be neat to make a Tandy adventure and have it online for our guests
to play.  Maybe someday I'll actually tackle the language and do one <g>.
