I can't get past the riddle room. I know the answer to the riddle,
having solved it in the MDL version. That version has instructions
telling you to type
answer "a foo"
(substitute the correct answer for "foo") to answer the riddle.
But the fortran version ("zork" as opposed to "dungeon") has no
instructions and all the variations I tried didn't work. What
is the proper syntax to get past it?sjb (08/13/82)
It has always worked for me to just says the answer. i.e. just say: <censored> where <censored> is the answer to the riddle.

If the riddle is What is as tall as a house and round as a cup and all the kings horses can't draw it up The answer is Well.
