I like Inform quite a lot and have been playing with it for the last few
days. (And liking it more all the time).
My problem is the TEX format manuals. I am a lowly DOS user and I
scarcely have any knowledge of TEX--and certainly no way I know of to
display, print or convert it to a format known to me. I have been using
the one "designer's manual" that has been dumped to ascii by some
ruthless machine. It's a whole lot better than nothing, of course, and
i've surely learned a lot from it. However I'm wondering if anyone has,
or if anyone *can*, convert them to some other format.. RTF (rich text
format) comes to mind.
Graham, if you are reading this... GREAT JOB! I just wish I had your
manuals in a format I could read to speed up the learning process a bit.
Oh well, I guess I can look at deciphering the ascii manual, and the
companion TEX manuals as a sort of (demented) text adventure in thier own
respecive rites! ha.
