Hello sailors!
This archive includes Inform 5.5 (v1502) for the Amiga. Please note:
1) The archive includes only the Inform executable -- you still need
library files, documentation, examples, etc. Of course they're are
available by anonymous FTP from ftp.gmd.de (and its mirrors) in the
directories:
/if-archive/infocom/compilers/inform/library
/if-archive/infocom/compilers/inform/manuals
/if-archive/infocom/compilers/inform/examples
2) The sources (as found on ftp.gmd.de) were compiled using SAS/C 6.55
and the resulting executable is a vanilla 68000 one -- that is, not
optimized for 68020 or better CPUs.
3) Being just a beginner Informer, I'm unable to test Inform v1502 for
the Amiga extensively. However, I've successfully compiled all the
examples available and they seem to be running properly.
4) Last, but not least, I really want to thank (just in alphabetical
order):
Graham Nelson: Inform, Curses and the forthcoming Jigsaw,
a V8 story game -- no less! ;-)
Gareth Rees: The Inform programming page

Christopher A. Wichura: Amiga port
Enjoy!
