zork1_2.readme [04-May-2001]

Description of the Zork I release 88 to release 2 patch.

zork1_88_to_2.pat [04-May-2001]

A patch to convert Zork I release 88 to release 2, as taken from a TRS-80 Model I disk.

zork1_88_to_52.pat [13-Oct-2000]

A patch to convert Zork I release 88 to the Solid Gold version that has built-in hints and a newer parser, by Adam Myrow. "I uploaded it because the existing patches do not have an easy method of going between this extremely common version to the Solid gold version. Instead, I had to patch to the German version, to version 5, 15, and several others one at a time in order to get to SG. So, I decided to create a patch that would do it in one step."
