For hint menus, get Graham Nelson's menus.h, or <ack! blanking on the name!>'s
altmenu.h. For graphics, get Patrick Kellum's V6Lib. All are available at
ftp://ftp.gmd.de/if-archive/infocom/compilers/inform6/library/contributins
I think.

Check out the hint menus in my port of "Night of the Vampire Bunnies",
based on the QBASIC game by Jason Dyer, it is based on the one in Zork and
uses Graham Nelson's wonderful menus.h as its basis.
Feel free to use the hint code in any of your projects.

Also, unlike the Zork hint menu, new hints become available as you enter
different locations.
