Description
Please note that the content of this book primarily consists of articles
available from Wikipedia or other free sources online. Dunnet is a text
adventure written by Ron Schnell in 1983. The game enjoys certain
popularity because since 1992 it is part of the default packages in many
of the Emacs versions. The word Dunnet is derived from the first three
letters of dungeon and the last three letters of Arpanet. It was first
written in Maclisp for the DECSYSTEM-20, then later re-written in Emacs
Lisp so as to be more portable.
