for those with problems running this on Jaguar, install with fink: 'fink install frotz', or use the Mac OS X version of 'Zoom': http://www.logicalshift.demon.co.uk/mac/zoom.html - runs flawlessly.

else with this problem): when I tried to run frotz in Jag, I got this error message: "dyld: frotz can't open library: /usr/local/lib/libncurses.dylib.5 (No such file or directory, errno = 2)". When I looked in /usr/local/lib, I found a file (actually a sumbolic link) called libncurses.5.dylib. Embarrassingly, it took me forever to realize that these two file names were different (the 5 in a different place). Here's what I did to fix the problem. in the Terminal, enter "sudo ln -s /usr/lib/libncurses.5.dylib /usr/local/lib/libncurses.dylib.5". This creates a link from the name frotz is expecting to the file it really wants. (A more professional solution I guess would involve editing the frotz source files.)
this is such…

a cool app, and absolutely the best way to play IF on OS X...but doesn't work for me on Jag... unfortunately.
I've surprised myself…

by actually preferring this to the GUI versions. Good stuff. The Terminal version of inform is also on versiontracker, which I've just discovered - just type "inform" into the search box.
Wonderful! Might you…

I Love You!…
