    Has anyone played the text-based adventure game dungeon, which comes with the emacs text editor for UNIX ? I'm stuck in the first building where I can't log onto the VAX computer. Anyone know what the login and password are for this stage of the game ?

    Cheers,
    jAH

    From my observations of my lab, where I live, under a desk, surviving only on baked beans supplied by a generous baked bean loving sponser, that I cook on a bunsen burner and washing only with those airport cleanser yokes, you know the damp tissues. Well, from those observations only total fools choose to play these games. Fools who use unix and wear trousers that are too short, and speak unintelligibly about philosophy they only 1/2 understand. And talk about these games that suck quite badly. No reflection on you now Jrgha, ya understand? smile.gif

    Sure they're great to pass the time at work when you've nothing better to do. Thanks for all your help lads, took me a while to sift through the reams of hints and tips which ye provided. I am in the year 1978, and posting this message through my time machine toaster. I managed to figure it out for meself, up Zork and the late 70's !
