Controls
Boots a small public-domain Z-machine version-3 text adventure, "Tiny Cave". Type interactive-fiction commands at the prompt and press Enter: try look, north, south, wait, inventory, help or quit. The bar across the top is the version-3 status line (current room on the left, score and moves on the right). Click the screen first so it captures the keyboard. Open the debugger, or add ?debug, to single-step the Z-machine one Z-code opcode at a time, watch the PC and stack, and set breakpoints.
