    AGTBLURB.TXT -- An overview of the Adventure Game Toolkit

         This file (1) gives an overview of the Adventure Game Toolkit (AGT),
         a new "shareware" adventure game development system, (2) presents a
         complete "walkthru" of a small game that was created using AGT, but
         without any programming by the game developer, (3) introduces AGT's
         unique metalanguage especially designed to give the game developer
         total control and flexibility in creating adventure games comparable
         to those from Infocom, and (4) tells that AGT development system is
         now "freeware."

 
    AGT-DOC.TXT -- The documentation for the Adventure Game Toolkit

         This file is the documentation for the Adventure Game Toolkit (or
         AGT) adventure game development system.  When unpacked, this file
         will take about 250K, and fill most of a floppy disk.

         To print the documentation: first, make sure that your printer has at
         least 100 pages of paper.  Next, position the printer to the top edge
         of a new page.  Finally, give the command "TYPE AGT-DOC.TXT > PRN" to
         print the file.
 

    COMPILE.EXE -- The Adventure Game Toolkit's "Compiler"

         COMPILE CAVE

         at the DOS > prompt.


    RUN.EXE -- The Adventure Game Toolkit's "Run-Time" program

         For example, to play or run the CAVE game (after you have compiled it
         -- of course), just give the command

         RUN CAVE
