A Portable Z-Machine Interpreter

+ + +

+Frotz is an interpreter for Infocom games and other Z-machine games. It +complies with +standard 1.0 +of Graham Nelson's specification. It was written by Stefan Jokisch in +1995-1997. It was ported to Unix by Galen Hazelwood. Currently the Unix +port is being developed and maintained by David Griffith. The Unix port +is also the canonical core version upon which all other ports are based. + + +

Features

+ +

Compiles and runs without changes on most common flavors of Unix, +both open source and not. This includes MacOS X. +

Portable to many other operating systems +and hardware. +

Plays all Z-code games including V6. +

Sound support through libao. +

V6 support through SDL. +

Config files. +

User-configurable error-checking. +

Optional dumb interface. +

Places to get Frotz

+ +

+Interactive Fiction Archive +: +Various flavors of Frotz can be found at the +Interactive Fiction Archive or any of +its mirrors. + +
+
+Gitlab +: +Gitlab hosts a Git repository of the Unix port of +Frotz, which also includes the DOS port. The Unix port +includes a curses +interface, an SDL interface, and a +dumb interface that requires absolutely no other libraries besides the +standard C library. + +
+
Your operating system's package repository +: +This link shows the Frotz packages for the most commonly-encountered distributions of +Linux. Frotz is also available in Gentoo's +Portage and +Packages systems. +For the BSD world, there are +NetBSD's pkgsrc tree, +FreeBSD's ports tree, and +OpenBSD's ports tree. +For MacOS (a derivative of FreeBSD), there is a Fink package. + +

+ + +

Credits

+This program started as a remake of Mark Howell's Zip, but has grown into +a completely new interpreter with ports for lots of platforms. + +

+Thanks goes to Stefan Jokisch for writing Frotz and Galen Hazelwood for +doing the initial work of porting it to Unix. Thanks also to Jim Dunleavy +for his optimization to the core Frotz code. Other people to thank +include those who uploaded patches to Unix Frotz to the IF-Archive and +getting me interested in the inner-workings of interpreters like Frotz, +people who posted to Usenet feedback on what I was doing, testers, those +who donated the use of machines for porting, sent me patches, etc. These +include, but are not limited to: + +

+Torbjorn Anderson, Timo Korvola, Martin Frost, Mihail Milushev, David +Picton, Chris Sullivan, Leonard Richardson, Stephen Kitt, Paul E Coad, +Paul Janzen, Brad Town, Jason C Penney, Denis Hirschfeldt, Jacob Nevins, +Matteo De Luigi, Steven Frank, Thomas Troeger, and others that I've +forgotten. +

+ +

+Michael Edmonson (author of Rezrov) and Evin Robertson (author of Nitfol) +deserve recognition for the ideas that I've borrowed from their +programs. Al Petrofsky (creator of dumbfrotz) donated much code to allow +Unix Frotz to semi-support V6 games. + + +
