This is the A-code source of a skeleton-based implementation of the
test nano-adventure "The Cloak of Darkness". The source is provided
under GPL -- the GNU Public Licence.

To create the adventure executable, you will need acdc (the A-code to C
translator), the adventure kernel (advkern.c and advkern.h) both at
version 11 or higher, both of which are freely available under GPL. 
The only other requirement is an ANSI C compiler.

This package comprises:

README.txt     this file
sk*.acd        unmodified A-code skeleton source files
scl*.acd       additional source files specific to Cloak
scloak.acd     umbrella source file -- a modified version of
               skeleton.acd, the only changes being the addition
               of include statements for the two cl*.acd files
               and a different database file name definition.
compile.txt    transcript of the building process

Please note that for clarity, this implementation keeps its code
entirely separate, leaving the skeleton template A-code source files
un-modified. In practice it is much more likely, and will sometimes be
inevitable, that you will be editing the templeta source files.
