ITP: glulxe - interpreter for glulx Text Adventures

glulxe is an interpreter for Text Adventures. It is an implementation of the glulx Virtual Machine (VM) which was specifically designed for the needs of Interactive Fiction (a.k.a. Text Adventures). Games that ship in the form of runtime-code for the glulx VM can be run with any standard conforming glulx interpreter, e.g. with glulxe. Code for the glulx VM can be produced e.g. with the Inform compiler.

Here are proposed Debian packages of glulxe:
