#
# We define a bunch of YAML structures:
#
-# vocabulary: - This structure is unused, and will eventually be removed. -
-# Almost all the words the game knows - one of them (the
-# reservoir magic word) gets replaced with a randomly-generated
-# cookie. For each word there is a type (motion, action, object,
-# or special) and a numeric value. Multiple synonyms may have the
-# same value.
-#
-# motions: Motion words, grouped into synonyms.
-#
+# motions: Motion words, grouped into synonyms. The 'oldstyle'
+# attribute, if false, means that single-letter synonyms should be
+# accepted in oldstyle mode; it defaults to true.
+
# actions: Action words, grouped into synonyms, and their corresponding
-# default messages.
+# default messages. The 'oldstyle' attribute is as for motions.
#
# hints: Each item contains a hint number, a hint label (used to
# generate the value macro for the hint) the number of turns he
# [with, OBJ] Must be carrying or in room with
# [not, OBJ N] Property of named OBJ must not be N.
# N may be numeric or a state label.
+# [nodwarves] Dwarves must skip this rule.
# All attributes are optional except the long description and
# travel. Order of locations is not significant.

-- VOCAB_DESCRIPTION: |-
- I know of places, actions, and things. Most of my vocabulary
- describes places and is used to move you there. To move, try words
- like forest, building, downstream, enter, east, west, north, south,
- up, or down. I know about a few special objects, like a black rod
- hidden in the cave. These objects can be manipulated using some of
- the action words that I know. Usually you will need to give both the
- object and action words (in either order), but sometimes I can infer
- the object from the verb alone. Some objects also imply verbs; in
- particular, "inventory" implies "take inventory", which causes me to
- give you a list of what you're carrying. Some objects have unexpected
- effects; the effects are not always desirable! Usually people having
- trouble moving just need to try a few more words. Usually people
- trying unsuccessfully to manipulate an object are attempting something
- beyond their (or my!) capabilities and should try a completely
- different tack. One point often confusing to beginners is that, when
- there are several ways to go in a certain direction (e.g., if there
- are several holes in a wall), choosing that direction in effect
- chooses one of the ways at random; often, though, by specifying the
- place you want to reach you can guarantee choosing the right path.
- Also, to speed the game you can sometimes move long distances with a
- single word. For example, "building" usually gets you to the building
- from anywhere above ground except when lost in the forest. Also, note
- that cave passages and forest paths turn a lot, so leaving one place
- heading north doesn't guarantee entering the next from the south.
- However (another important point), except when you've used a "long
- distance" word such as "building", there is always a way to go back
- where you just came from unless I warn you to the contrary, even
- though the direction that takes you back might not be the reverse of
- what got you here. Good luck, and have fun!
- BAD_DIRECTION: 'There is no way to go that direction.'
- TWO_WORDS: 'Please stick to 1- and 2-word commands.'
-- OK_MAN: 'OK'
+- OK_MAN: &ok_man 'OK'
- CANNOT_UNLOCK: 'You can''t unlock the keys.'
- FUTILE_CRAWL: |-
You have crawled around in some little holes and wound up back in the
things. I cannot tell you where remote things are.
- OGRE_SNARL: 'The ogre snarls and shoves you back.'
- HUH_MAN: 'Huh?'
-- FOREST_LOOK: |-
- The trees of the forest are large hardwood oak and maple, with an
- occasional grove of pine or spruce. There is quite a bit of under-
- growth, largely birch and ash saplings plus nondescript bushes of
- various sorts. This time of year visibility is quite restricted by
- all the leaves, but travel is quite easy if you detour around the
- spruce and berry bushes.

- TAME_BEAR: 'You are being followed by a very large, tame bear.'
-- QUICK_START: |-
- For a summary of the most recent changes to the game, say "news".
- If you want to end your adventure early, say "quit". To suspend your
- adventure such that you can continue later, say "suspend" (or "pause"
- or "save"). To see how well you're doing, say "score". To get full
- credit for a treasure, you must have left it safely in the building,
- though you get partial credit just for locating it. You lose points
- for getting killed, or for quitting, though the former costs you more.
- There are also points based on how much (if any) of the cave you've
- managed to explore; in particular, there is a large bonus just for
- getting in (to distinguish the beginners from the rest of the pack),
- and there are other ways to determine whether you've been through some
- of the more harrowing sections. If you think you've found all the
- treasures, just keep exploring for a while. If nothing interesting
- happens, you haven't found them all yet. If something interesting
- *DOES* happen (incidentally, there *ARE* ways to hasten things along),
- it means you're getting a bonus and have an opportunity to garner many
- more points in the Master's section. I may occasionally offer hints
- if you seem to be having trouble. If I do, I'll warn you in advance
- how much it will affect your score to accept the hints. Finally, to
- save time, you may specify "brief", which tells me never to repeat the
- full description of a place unless you explicitly ask me to.

+ I know of places, actions, and things. Most of my vocabulary
+ describes places and is used to move you there. To move, try words
+ like forest, building, downstream, enter, east, west, north, south,
+ up, or down. I know about a few special objects, like a black rod
+ hidden in the cave. These objects can be manipulated using some of
+ the action words that I know. Usually you will need to give both the
+ object and action words (in either order), but sometimes I can infer
+ the object from the verb alone. Some objects also imply verbs; in
+ particular, "inventory" implies "take inventory", which causes me to
+ give you a list of what you're carrying. Some objects have unexpected
+ effects; the effects are not always desirable! Usually people having
+ trouble moving just need to try a few more words. Usually people
+ trying unsuccessfully to manipulate an object are attempting something
+ beyond their (or my!) capabilities and should try a completely
+ different tack. One point often confusing to beginners is that, when
+ there are several ways to go in a certain direction (e.g., if there
+ are several holes in a wall), choosing that direction in effect
+ chooses one of the ways at random; often, though, by specifying the
+ place you want to reach you can guarantee choosing the right path.
+ Also, to speed the game you can sometimes move long distances with a
+ single word. For example, "building" usually gets you to the building
+ from anywhere above ground except when lost in the forest. Also, note
+ that cave passages and forest paths turn a lot, so leaving one place
+ heading north doesn't guarantee entering the next from the south.
+ However (another important point), except when you've used a "long
+ distance" word such as "building", there is always a way to go back
+ where you just came from unless I warn you to the contrary, even
