Description:
 QTads is a GUI interpreter for Tads games,
running under Unix-based systems (it has been
tested in Linux, Mac OS X and FreeBSD, but it
should compile and run in many more, like Solaris
and Irix). It has some nice features, like
fullscreen mode and text-justification.

Tads is a programming language for implementing
Interactive Fiction (text-adventures). If you ever
played an Infocom game like �Zork� or
�Trinity�, or the classic game �Adventure�
by Crowther and Woods (also known as �ADVENT�;
it has also been ported to Tads), then you know
what this is about.

Changelog:
 [li]Updated the Tads virtual machine to version
2.5.10/3.0.15.3[/li]

[li]The amount of turns the player can UNDO in
Tads 3 games has been increased. In previous
versions, the player could only UNDO a few turns
(about 6 or so; it varies by game).  Now you can
undo more than 100 turns.  Note that there's an
upper-limit of turns that the player can UNDO
(255) imposed by the T3 VM.[/li]

[li]Fixed some non-working shortcuts in the
configuration dialog.[/li]

[li]QTads is now able to parse the
meta-information resource embedded in a game (Tads
2 as well as Tads 3).  For    this, a new menu
entry has been added ("Game->Game Information"). 
HTML code in the meta-info tags (if it exists) is
supported and displayed correctly.[/li]

[li]Fixed compilation errors with recent
compilers.[/li]

[li]The interpreter will now correctly restore the
window coordinates and size of the previous
session even when starting in fullscreen mode. 
Changing from fullscreen to windowed mode will now
use the geometry that was set in the previous
session before entering fullscreen mode.[/li]

[li]The "File Open" dialog will now correctly show
both Tads 2 as well as Tads 3 games.[/li]
