I downloaded the free Zork 1-3 from the Infocom site, and just messing
around (knowing they had developed version 1-5 (6?) of the z machine)
tried renaming the DAT files to .z3 and they work in Frotz. But how do
you tell for sure what Z-machine version a game is developed for? Will
it just not work if you name it to the wrong version? Or does Frotz not
even look at the file name and figure out the version itself? Thanks.
