New release of "A Change in the Weather"


Tue, 14 Nov 1995 13:49:12 -0500

I've uploaded a new version of weather.z5. There is exactly one change
-- the "Hit any key to continue" routine works correctly. (It worked
before in ZIP-based emulators, but not in Infocom's emulators.)

If you never had a problem with it, you don't really need to get the
new version. On the other hand, future versions of ZIP may not support
the undocumented behavior I was relying on. (I was calling @read_char
with a timeout of 0, instead of leaving out the timeout entirely.)
