Moria on the Rainbow

I have ported Moria to the Rainbow.  It is now available via anonymous
FTP from solbourne.solbourne.com in pub/rb/rbumor54.zip.  The version
that was on kukulcan didn't want to work on the Bow, despite the
documentation.

This is umoria ported to the Rainbow.  I ported version 5.4 from
kukulcan.berkeley.edu.  I have only included my changes to the source,
rather than the full source (sorry).  I've included an executable and
the documentation.  Full sources are available in
pub/wilson/umoria_5/umoria (somewhere).

Let me know if you have any troubles with this version.  I haven't had
any problems for over two weeks.  In fact, things have been going well
enough that this release has slipped two weeks. :-)

Note, it REQUIRES PKUNZIP 1.10 (or unzip 4.0) or greater to unzip.
PKUNZIP 1.02 will not work.

Moria is a game like rogue, hack or larn.  It adds its own local color
(shops to shop in, different monsters, lots of odd magic).  The
Rainbow is a PC-like machine made my DEC several years ago.

Can you say something about your changes?
Does your version work on VAX/VMS or UNIX?

Basic functionality to get Moria to run on the Rainbow.  Plus some bug
fixes to tcio.c, which is the experimental io.c that was in 5.4.

I had thought of putting in a Dec Salesman on the town level.  It
would do things like beg, drool, etc.  However, I thought better of it
since I didn't want to gratutiously offend people.  Besides, I would
have had to change even more of the code than I did.

All this moria is a port to a new system.  Nothing more.

>Does your version work on VAX/VMS or UNIX?

Yes.  The changes are all #ifdefed.  However, you won't notice the
difference. :-)

If it can't be done with Emacs, you are being too ambitious.
