+FROTZ V2.43 - An interpreter for all Infocom and other Z-machine games.
+Complies with standard 1.0 of Graham Nelson's specification.
+
+Originally written by Stefan Jokisch in 1995-1997.
+Ported to Unix by Galen Hazelwood.
+Reference code and Unix port currently maintained by David Griffith.
+
+- Compiles and runs on most common flavors of Unix, both open source and not.
+- Plays all Z-code games including V6.
+- Old-style sound support through OSS driver.
+- Config files.
+- Configurable error checking.
+- Default use of the Quetzal file format.  Command line option to use the
+  old format.  There are several differences between the old-style save 
+  format at Quetzal such that converting from old-style and Quetzal is 
+  difficult if not impossible.  This also means you can't restore an 
+  old-style save and then save your game in Quetzal.
+- Optional speech synthesis and recognition through FLITE and Sphinx.
+- Distributed under the GNU Public License.
