: However, if you use AGT or ALAN, you'll find two problems: (1) people
: won't play your games unless they have IBM PCs (for example, I can play
: TADS and Inform games on this SPARCstation, but I can't play AGT games).
: (2) The simpler systems aren't sophisticated enough to produce games of
: as high a quality as TADS or Inform. If you hanker after writing
: another "Trinity", or even another "Zork", then AGT won't quite let you
: do it.
Not that it really matters. But ALAN has a Macintosh version also, so Mac
users can use it also.
: Why not try all four (you can try out TADS for a bit without
: registering) and see what you think?
That's my solution also. I tried 3 different ones, and ended up using Inform.
Altough it is a bit hard for me to learn, I can handle it. :)
