Well, I just got the answer in the mail. "Computist" magazine has an enhancement for an Infocom text reader in their latest issue (#47). The original text reader is in their issue #34. This magazine is mostly a "how to copy disks" and "programs to look into adventure programs and change parameters" kind of thing, if you're interested in that. The back issue #34 is $4.75 from Computist, PO Box 110846-T, Tacoma, WA 98411 (I don't have it, otherwise I'd pass on the basics). Eric Haines
