The version I am familiar with is that ported by Gordon Letwin (architect
of OS/2) for Heath (CP/M-class) micros.  I believe he ported the original
FORTRAN, in fact.

Your version sounds ready-made for a Mac port.  I, for one, would like it,
if only to show my son--Adventure is one of the all-time "neat ideas" for
what you can do with a computer.
