Hi all!

Well, I've begun programming a simple place -- my house.  There is quite a lot
of programming just to get things to act like I want them too.  Much more than
I expected.  I do salute all of you programmers who have actually implemented
puzzles with your objects.

Well, on to my question:  once I get the place/things programmed, I would like
to implement three NPCs.  Me, my wife, and my cat.  Is there any cool examples
on how to implement NPCs.  I assume fuses and daemons are used, but this is the
one subject on which I find the TADS manual to be lacking.

If anyone has implemented simple NPCs and has a library file they would like
to share (I'm sure NPCs have been created, it's that sharing part that I wonder
about), let me know and you can maybe drop me a line.

Thanks, and see you at MyPlace,
