Hello --

I'm interested in a small clue to Infocom's Enchanter game.  My friends
and I have almost solved the game, but I get very frustrated when trying
to get the adventurer to open the guarded door for me.  Most of the time
he just seems to accept the last treasure (in the guarded-door room),
thank me for it, and walk away.  Sometimes, of course, he doesn't walk
away and then I can ask him to open the door ... but only sometimes.

What's going on?  Can someone mail me a clue of some sort explaining
how to make this work consistently?

					Many Thanks,
					   --Peter Alfke
