Inform 6.41 for Amiga (22nd July 2022)

This program is a compiler of Infocom format (also called "Z-machine")

story files, as well as "Glulx" story files:

Usage: "inform [commands...] <file1> [<file2>]"

<file1> is the Inform source file of the game to be compiled. <file2>,

if given, overrides the filename Inform would normally use for the

compiled output. Try "inform -h1" for file-naming conventions.

One or more words can be supplied as "commands". These may be:

-switches a list of compiler switches, 1 or 2 letter

(see "inform -h2" for the full range)

+dir set Include_Path to this directory

++dir add this directory to Include_Path

+PATH=dir change the PATH to this directory

++PATH=dir add this directory to the PATH

$... one of the following configuration commands:

$list list current settings

$?SETTING explain briefly what SETTING is for

$SETTING=number change SETTING to given number

$!TRACEOPT set trace option TRACEOPT

(or $!TRACEOPT=2, 3, etc for more tracing;

$! by itself to list all trace options)

$#SYMBOL=number define SYMBOL as a constant in the story

(filename) read in a list of commands (in the format above)

from this "setup file"

Alternate command-line formats for the above:

--help (this page)

--path PATH=dir (set path)

--addpath PATH=dir (add to path)

--list (list current settings)

--helpopt SETTING (explain setting)

--opt SETTING=number (change setting)

--helptrace (list all trace options)

--trace TRACEOPT (set trace option)

--trace TRACEOPT=num (more tracing)

--define SYMBOL=number (define constant)

--config filename (read setup file)

For example: "inform -dexs curses".

For fuller information, see the Inform Designer's Manual.
