For that matter is a KL a "real" PDP-10?

Tradition has it that the thing to do with Forth is implement your own toy and then call it a day. Usually not having learned how to actually program in Forth. Yes I'm bitter.

Also, it was ported (rewritten) to a PDP-7.

You can run MDL Zork with a interpreter called Confusion.

Probably this, right? https://adl.sourceforge.net/ddldoc.html Do you still have that code?

by larsbrinkhoff 3y ago
To clarify, "Mainframe Zork" usually means the original MDL version for the PDP-10, Bob Supnik's Fortran translation thereof, or the C translation of the Fortran version. The other, "not mainframe" Zork, is Infocom
