Filed under: General — James Jolley @ 9:31 pm

The Interactive Fiction Archive has been given significantly more bandwidth, thus giving us faster download speeds. It’s had some majour restructuring to disallow robots and other internet crawlers. All these improvements amount to a better quality of service throughout all the mirrors as well.

Inform build 5T18 is now available

Filed under: Inform 7 — James Jolley @ 4:46 pm

The latest build of Inform is now up. The main changes are related to understanding plurals and defining grammar in general, but many more things have altered and been reworked. The python style use of tab stops for IF/then/else conditionals is now implemented, but the older syntax for these conditions will continue to be supported indefinitely.

It is available from The official site.
