Microcosm
(and here's an
ad) is a puzzle book by Hal Gashtan. Unfortunately, that's pretty much all I
can tell you, since I have made very little progress. There's a forum
at Quest4Treasure with a bit more information.
Microcosm (22k; Win32 & DOS
binaries, C source). This is a C conversion of the Basic program, with all the
text built-in.
Windows GUI version (11k; includes C source).
Uses drop-down lists to select lines and key.
Bruternd (17k;
includes C source). Brute force attack. This is an XP console
program, but the source shouldn't be that hard to adapt to other systems.
Select (14k;
includes C source). Choose appropriate candidate lines. This is a Win32 console
program, but see above.
Wordlist (416k) required by Bruternd and Select.
text.h required by all the sources.
A message! Start ucosm with this file; or close microcosm, replace
state.txt with this file and restart.
