	Ok, I'm trying to write this so that when the player enters a
certain room, he dies.  Is this correct code?
	
exit0: room
		sdesc = "Basement Level Exit"
		ldesc = "You leave Crosby Dorm through the basement level
exit.  As you step out into the cold, you realize that you don't have your
key card to get back in.  You turn to grab the closing door, but you are too
late.  You wrap your arms around yourself to keep warm, but to no avail. 
The 8 feet of snow that is sure to fall tonight will probably be the last
thing you see...";
		die();
;

(Ignore the indentations, it got all screwed up when I transfered it.)
Do I have to declare the die: function in my program, or is it ok that I
just '#include <std.t>'?
How important are the indentations anyway?  My ldesc's and sdesc's usually
look like th above example anyway, and it doesn't seem to throw things off.

One more thing.  Where are the guys from High Energy Software?  I tried
calling them, leaving them e-mail messages...but I can't get in touch with
them.  Aside from snail-mail, does anyone know a surefire way to get in
touch with them quick.  (not a BBS, or CompuServe, or GEnie, though, what
I'm looking for is maybe a different e-mail address that what's commonly
known.  I know = support@hinrg.starconn.com and 73737.417@compuserve.com )

Thankx again.
