  Some of the items in UNIX Zork are left over from the full
version that was developed on MIT-DM many years back. One of the
more interesting sets of missing items is a set of three
spheres. If you gaze into any one of the spheres it will show
you a vision of one of the others. We all know the sphere that
now exists in the machine room. If you gazed into that one, you
saw a sphere in the Tiny Room. This room was a small room off of
the torch room with a wooden door. The doormat was placed under
the door, a key was inserted on your side of the door, forcing
the real key out of the lock on the other side, causing it to
fall onto the mat. You then retrieved the mat and with it the
key. This got you the second sphere. The last sphere was
obtained by shedding all items save for the lamp. You placed the
timbers at the top of the slide in the Coal Room and tied the
rope to it. You then climbed half-way down the ramp and got off
to collect the last sphere. That is where the timbers came into
play.

If anyone knows where I can obtain a copy of the full version,
PLEASE let me know. Or, if someone can ship me the sources for
the current version, I will attempt to upgrade it to the full
version. I have miles of listings from the DM version, so that
would not be too rough, I hope.

********* SPOILERS **********












These are just hints. If you want a dead giveaway, write me and
I'll give 'em out.

The egg: can be opened by an inhabitant of the dungeon. The item
inside also is used to collect another item.

You only have to press the triangular button, the others are of
no use. 

As the previous message suggested, the wire and brick can be
combined in a fashion to explode something. It is not a door, it
is an object that at one point had a keyhole but the keyhole has
since been rendered useless.

I will be happy to answer questions with hints or dead giveaways
as requested.
