          Somewhere nearby is Colossal cave, where others have found
          fortunes in treasure and gold, though it is rumored that
          some who enter are never seen again. Magic is said to work
          in the cave. I will be your eyes and hands.

          Direct me with commands of 1 or 2 words. I should warn you
          that I look at only the first five letters of each word, so
          you'll have to enter "northeast" as "ne" to distinguish it
          from "north".

          There are 7 special words that you should know about. First
          the word "quit" ends the game at any point you wish. Next is
          the word help which is the way you got here but it may be
          used at other times if you get stuck. If I can I will give
          you hints when you enter "help".

          Another important word is "inventory". If you enter
          inventory I will tell you everything that you are carrying.
          "look" will cause a repeat of the current location
          description.  The fifth is "score" At any point in the game
          I will tell you how many points you have.

          The next word is "preserve". This permits you to save the
          curent state of the game for future continuation. Respond to
          the question with the desired name, and after the game is
          saved you may either just continue or else "quit". To
          restart from the monitor just type in "AD GAME return" where
          "GAME" is name under which preserved.

          The last word is "restore". This may be used during the
          course of a game to reinitiate a previously "preserve"d game
          without having to reload from the beginning.

          With respect to your keyboard input:  1.  input is expected
          in lower case characters.  2.  Deletion of characters is
          done with the "BS or backspace" key.  3.  Line delete is
          done with the "control X".  4.  Control C returns you to the
          system monitor.

          There is a possibility of your falling out of the SAM76
          program, this is evidenced by inaction regardless of your
          commands. Try recovering by typing the following: %**/
          followed by a return.

          If this version is multilingual you may switch by demanding
          the desired language thus: francais for french, deutsch for
          german &c.

          This program was originally developed by Willie Crowther.
          Most of the features of the current program were added by
          Don Woods (Don @ Su-Ai). This SAM76 implementation was done
          in major part by Jim Manning. More features were added by
          Ancelme Roichel et al. Harley Licht proof tested and
          verified this version for reasonable authenticity.

     
          Pres d'ici se trouve la caverne Colossale ou, j'ai entendu
          dire qu'il y avait des tresors et de l'or en quantite
          inimaginable.  On dit aussi que beaucoup d'aventuriers se
          sont perdus dans cette caverne et n'en sont jamais revenus.

          Je serais vos mains et vos yeux. Dirigez moi avec des ordres
          de plusieurs mots. En general j'ignore les articles et je
          m'interesse seulement aux cinq premieres lettres des mots.
          Certaines abreviations sont permises telles que no pour n/o
          ou nord/ouest.

          Le mot "sauvegarde" permet de sauver la situation actuelle
          du jeu pour le reprendre plus tard. Apres avoir repondu a la
          question, il est possible de continuer ou bien de s'arreter
          en se servant du mot "fini".  Pour recommencer on en fait la
          demande en ecrivant "AD NOM" suivi de la touche {RET...};
          "NOM" represente le nom choisi au moment de sauvegarder le
          jeu.

          sauvegarde le jeu en servant du mot "restaurez". Cela evite
          de recharger le tout.  avez avec vous. Le mot "SCORE" vous
          donne votre score. Le mot "AIDEZ" peut vous donner des
          indications utiles.  Quelques regles pour entrer vos ordres:
          1.  Ils doivent etre ecrits en lettres minuscules.  2.
          Servez vous de la touche "BS" ou retour en arriere pour
          effacer.  3.  "Controle X" efface une ligne entiere.  4.
          "Controle C" vous ramene au systeme d'exploitation.  Il est
          possible qu'a un moment donne vos commandes n'aient plus
          d'effet.  Essayez de demarrer de nouveau en ecrivant
          l'expression suivante: %**/ suivie de la touche de retour.

          Si cette version est multilingue vous pouvez changer la
          langue en demandant - english pour anglais, deutsch pour
          allemand etc.  - - - Ce programme fut developpe a l'origine
          par Willie Crowther en Fortran. Beaucoup de complements
          furent ajoutes plus tard par Don Woods et d'autres. La
          presente version fut ecrite en language SAM76 par Jim
          Manning. Certains ajouts et corrections furent faits par
          Ancelme Roichel. Harley Licht a examine et verifie le texte
          pour un degre raisonable d'authenticite.
