A better bet would be to find one of the freeware Infocom interpreters
for MS-DOS or Windows and use the Hitchhiker's data file with that.
It will run a lot faster that way, and the interface is probably
nicer. Or if you want the whole shootin' match, pick up a copy of
Lost Treasures of Infocom I and II to get almost every Infocom text
game ever put out. I was going to suggest the new "Masterpieces of
Infocom" collection that Activision has recently released, but I
just look at the game list and Hitchhiker's appears to be missing.
Strange...
