-This Zen simulation is based on the C version v1600003.248b
-by Leonard Richardson (C) 1997, 2000.
-Written originally for the Nerth Pork robotfindskitten contest.
-Reimplemented in Inform by David Griffith (C) 2002.
-
-Lots more information on robotfindskitten is available at
-http://www.robotfindskitten.org.

-In this game, you are Robot (#).  Your job is to find Kitten.  This
-task is complicated by the existance of various things which are not
-kitten.  Robot must touch items to determine if they are Kitten or
-not.  Move Robot with the cursor keys, the numeric keypad, or
-using the vi/rogue movement keys. The game ends when robotfindskitten.
-Alternatively, you may end the game by hitting the Esc or Q keys.

-The NKI files need to be converted into a form that can be included in 
-an Inform6 program.  A Perl script, nki2inf.pl, is provided for this 
-purpose.  Invoke it like this: "nki2inf.pl *.nki > nki.inf".  Now you 
-can invoke Inform6 on kitten.inf

-Notes ||
-========
-1) More than half of the code is taken up by non kitten items
-   (NKIs).  When I compiled the code with just five messages and
-   no debugging code, the resulting binary was less than 10k bytes.
-
-2) If it wasn't already abundantly obvious, this program won't
-   compile to Glulx because of copious use of Z-machine assembly
-   instructions.
-      
-3) Compiling for V5 or higher is required due to "style" calls.
-   Is there a reason why someone would want to compile this for V4
-   or previous?
