XZip 1.4


Thu, 15 Jun 1995 13:42:56 -0400

I've put a new version of XZip (Unix/X windows Z-code interpreter) in
the incoming/if-archive directory on ftp.gmd.de. This update contains
the same improvements as today's release of MaxZip 1.2.0: a bug with
reverse-video text has been fixed, and it supports V8 Z-code files.
(Although not V6, and probably not V7.)

One warning: I no longer have access to an X terminal, so these fixes
are totally untested. It compiles; that's all I know for sure. If
there's anyone using Inform 5.5 to produce V8 games, who has access to
a machine running X, I'd appreciate some field testing. (For that
matter, if you have a V8 game and a Mac, I'd appreciate field testing
of MaxZip 1.2.0.)
