    - timed input ('Border Zone')
    - built-in graphic font ('Beyond Zork')
    - mouse support ('Beyond Zork' and all V6 games)
    - function key support including number pad keys ('Beyond Zork')
    - command line editing and history
    - small save files (Zip 2.0 format is still understood)
    - switch for setting the Tandy bit
    - sound effects ('Lurking Horror' and 'Sherlock')
    - cheat functions
    - multiple UNDO (via hot key, even for old V1 to V4 games)
    - input line recording and playback (via hot key)
    - support for European characters ('Zork I German')
    - underlined, reverse and boldface text
    - fast performance without virtual memory

This interpreter now supports Infocom's "Graphical" V6 games, including
