[net.misc] zork question

-------

One thing that's kept me from getting interested in games like zork is
the long sequence of commands you have to put in at the beginning of
each trial, until you get to the point where you can try something new
(around the back of the house, into the window, into the living room,
get the lantern, light the lantern, move the rug, etc., etc.).  Is
there any way to put this initial series of commands into some kind of
script and execute it automatically, with control passing back to the
keyboard at the end of the script?

Try putting the initial commands in th file "commands" and then
do "cat commands -  | zork" ...
