Request: AA.EXE -Author's Aid
Does anyone know where to get this help utility for AGT?
It was available at Adventureland BBS (606) 271-0558 few years ago,
but I have no idea if the BBS is still alive.

Please help me if you can since I'm really desperate!

I have this at home and will post it to the archive stie
when I return home from vacation (I am using my
stepson's machine at MIT right now).

Someone answered to this but I lost the message...

Could you remail it?

The best place to look for AGT resources is the if-archive at ftp.gmd.de
(see link from my AGT page at http://members.aol.com/markwelch/agt.htm )

They do not have it on the ftp.gmd.de :(
Someone said that the file can be found on ZDNet and prodigy...
I looked everywhere but I didn't find a hint of the file's whereabouts.

Still looking

In /unprocessed/agt/, there is a DOS program called AGTMACRO that will type out
the basic forms for objects, rooms, creatures, etc. when you press Alt and a number.
All you have to do is put in the nouns, descriptions, etc.; it does the "busy work" for
you. I don't know where Adventure Author can be found, if it does indeed exist.

That program I already have, and indeed it is better (IMHO) than
AA which is not very user friendly and is still buggy.

It does, I got couple of replies where it was attached.
By now it should be on the FTP.GMD.DE, and if it is not
then I will upload it....

Thanks to all who replied
