 Frotz 2.41
 ported to AROS by Kalle Räisänen <kal/aros-stuff.tk>.
 compiled for AmigaOS 4.0 by Spot / Up Rough

This is the stdio version of AmigaFrotz (with some small changes)
compiled for AROS-i386. It uses ANSI escape sequences to console
the cursor (code in `amiga_stdio.c').
 The main change I've made is to make `os_read_char()' (in 
`amiga_stdio.c') not echo the chars it reads (which seems to be
the Right Thing). There are a few other changes, but nothing
significant.
 I've also made fairly extensive changes to the archive layout,
eg. moved the blorblib files to a sub directory, added a Makefile,
et c. Plus I've added the directory `games/', which contains
`the Encyclopedia Frobozzica' and `Advent', a couple of games to
test functionality.
 The code in `src/amiga/' should be fairly easy to port to AROS, 
'though I haven't looked to closely at it.


 Installation

Just copy the file `frotz' into somewhere in your path (`C:' might
be good).
