 The table below contains all Infocom games and all known information
about each game and each revision.  All the information below was con-
tributed by Paul David Doherty <d.doherty@bamp.berlinet.in-berlin.de>,
except  most  of  the product codes and difficulty ratings and all the
information on LTOI II for  the  IBM-PC,  which  were  contributed  by
Daniel Sharpe <dpsharpe@eos.ncsu.edu>, and the information on LTOI I &
II for the Macintosh, which was contributed by me :-).

The columns in the table and their meanings are as follows:

Game Title
     Specifies the title of the game.  Games are listed in  alphabeti-
     cal order.

Aut
     (Author)  Lists  the  initials of the author(s) of the game.  Au-

DL
     (Difficulty Level): Many of the  Infocom  games,  especially  the
     earlier ones, were rated with a difficulty level.  The levels are
     (in increasing order of difficulty):

     I    Introductory
     S    Standard
     A    Advanced
     E    Expert
     -    None Given

     Note that there are widely differing opinions as to the  accuracy
     of these ratings, especially between E (Expert) and A (Advanced).

Prodct
     (Product Code):  The product codes for the  games  are  given  in
     this  column.  They denote the type of the game and the number in
     that type: the types are:

     CS   Immortal Legends (designed by Challenge, Inc.)
     IA   Interactive (Tales of) Adventure
     IC   Interactive Comedy
     IE   Interactive Espionage
     IH   Interactive Horror
     IJ   Interactive Journey (?)
     IK   Interactive Junior-level (Kids?)
     IL   Interactive Living Literature (Legend?)
     IM   Interactive Mystery
     IR   Interactive Romance
     IS   Interactive Science Fiction
     IZ   Interactive Fantasy (Zork Series)

Rel Num
     (Release Number): The release number of the game.  All games with
     the  same  release number are compatible in that saved files from
     one release number can be played by other versions of  that  game
     with the same release number.

Serial Number
     The serial number of the game: note the serial number is actually
     the date the version was released, in YYMMDD format.  Some  games
     have  more  than  one  serial number for the same release number;
     this means that some minor changes were made and the game was re-
     released, but that the two versions are compatible (see above).

Z-Code Version
     Specifies  which  version  of ZIL (Zork Interpreted Language) the
     game is written in.  The versions are as follows:

     3    Standard Series
     4    Plus Series
     5    Solid Gold Interactive Fiction
     6    Graphic Interactive Fiction

     If the version is postfixed with (snd) it means that  version  of
     that game supports sound.

LTOI Num.
     The  Lost  Treasures of Infocom package in which the game was re-
     released (if any).  Currently there are two packages: I  and  II.
     They have both been released for the IBM PC, Macintosh, and Amiga
     computer systems.  The table contains information for all  except
     the  Amiga version of LTOI II, since I haven't received info from
     anyone who has it yet.   Parenthesized  postfixes  specify  which
     version of a game is included in the package for the machine:

     a    Amiga
     m    Macintosh
     p    IBM PC

     No postfix means the same version is available for all three sys-
     tems.

PI?
     If the game is playable with version 3 of  the  portable  Infocom
     datafile interpreter then this column contains a ``Y''.
