Fizmo is a z-machine interpreter. it is used to play old infocom text adventures (except version 6) and modern interactive fiction as created by the inform compiler. for more information about interactive fiction -- and to download many storyfiles -- see http://www.ifarchive.org. this is a transitional package, ensuring that when fizmo is upgraded from old-style-packaging before version 0.7 either fizmo-ncursesw or fizmo-console is installed.
