|

<p>Every project has a ".materials" folder, which is always stored next to it on disc. (Use Ctrl+Shift+M to show the current project's .materials in Windows Explorer.) This screenshot shows how the .materials folder would look for a project which used it in every possible way. In practice, this is very unlikely.</p>
|
||||
|
||||
<img src="MaterialsDiagram.png" width="275" height="403"/>
|
||||
|
||||
<p>Project (<span class="red">1</span>) and .materials folder (<span class="red">2</span>) live side by side in Windows Explorer: everything else here is inside .materials (<span class="red">2</span>). The author of this story decided that it should be given to players along with a PDF booklet (<span class="red">3</span>), by including this Release instruction in the source text:
|
||||
|
||||
<blockquote>
|
||||
Release along with a file of "A Guide to Arboreal Fauna" called "A Guide to Arboreal Fauna.pdf".
|
||||
</blockquote>
|
||||
|
||||
<p>Every released project needs cover art. Authors have to provide two files, full-sized at 960 by 960 (<span class="red">4</span>) and reduced at 120 by 120 (<span class="red">18</span>): they can either be "Cover.jpg" and "Small Cover.jpg" or "Cover.png" and "Small Cover.png".</p>
|
||||
|
||||
<p>Extensions to Inform are usually centrally installed, and available to all projects. But this project has its own private copy of "Feeding Squirrels by Emily Short" (<span class="red">7</span>), in its own private Extensions folder (<span class="red">5</span>). This would override any installed copy of the same extension. It has to have the correct name and .i7x ending, and it has to live inside a folder with its author's name (<span class="red">6</span>).</p>
|
||||
|
||||
<p>Projects which include pictures as well as text need to store the necessary images, in JPEG or PNG format, in the Figures folder (<span class="red">8</span>). This one was declared in the source text like so:</p>
|
||||
|
||||
<blockquote>
|
||||
Figure of Red Admiral Butterfly is the file "butterfly.jpg".
|
||||
</blockquote>
|
||||
|
||||
<p>Sound effects are similar, use AIFF or OGG format, and live in Sounds (<span class="red">19</span>). There's one here (<span class="red">20</span>), declared by:</p>
|
||||
|
||||
<blockquote>
|
||||
Sound of Rustling Leaves is the file "Rustling Leaves.aiff".
|
||||
</blockquote>
|
||||
|
||||
<p>Projects which read or write files of data as they play should have a Files folder (<span class="red">10</span>) to hold these. This one (<span class="red">11</span>) was declared by:
|
||||
|
||||
<blockquote>
|
||||
The File of Nut Storage Locations is called "nutstorage".
|
||||
</blockquote>
|
||||
|
||||
<p>Now for some expert-only features which hardly anybody needs in practice. The I6T folder (<span class="red">12</span>) provides extra template files (<span class="red">13</span>), or indeed replacement ones (<span class="red">14</span>), and allows a project to include substantial portions of raw Inform 6 code. The Languages folder (<span class="red">16</span>) is for experimenting with language bundles, a feature still in its early stages. The Templates folder (<span class="red">21</span>) is for providing the project with a non-standard Javascript engine, called an "interpreter", when it's released as a website. Here there's an intepreter called "Experimental" (<span class="red">22</span>) which can be selected by putting this into the source:</p>
|
||||
|
||||
<blockquote>
|
||||
Release along with the "Experimental" interpreter.
|
||||
</blockquote>
|
||||
|
||||
<p>And that just leaves the Release folder (<span class="red">17</span>). Inform creates this automatically if the project's Release button is clicked, and then writes into it whatever will eventually go out to players. So never store anything permanent here: it's intended to be just a holding area.

<p><span class="headingpaneltext">New To Inform?</span></p>
|
||||
<p>Inform is both an application and a language for creating text-based
|
||||
interactive stories. Interactive fiction is an art form which evolved out of the
|
||||
adventure games of the 1970s, in the same way that today's graphic novels
|
||||
evolved out of the newspaper cartoons of the 1930s. Inform has been the design
|
||||
tool of choice for many, indeed most, of the world's leading writers in this
|
||||
genre since 1993, and is also widely used in education at a variety of levels.
|
||||
It's completely free, even when used to create commercial works. Thanks for
|
||||
downloading this copy, and we hope you'll enjoy it.</p>
|
||||
|
||||
<p>As you've seen, the app begins with a launcher panel. (Bring it back or
|
||||
remove it by typing Shift+F1.) You might like to try clicking Onyx, the smallest
|
||||
of the samples, under the "Open a Sample Project" list: it's a very
|
||||
short Russian folk-tale. Inform will ask you to choose somewhere on disc to
|
||||
store it, and then make a copy there. You can play with this and alter it
|
||||
freely, then throw it away when you're done: it's just a copy.</p>
|
||||
|
||||
<p>You can have several Inform projects open at once, but each one lives in a
|
||||
single window which is divided in half. The left and right sides are called
|
||||
"panes" and you can choose what's shown in them with the side tabs: it
|
||||
starts out as Source on the left, Documentation on the right.</p>
|
||||
|
||||
<p>Inform "translates" the instructions in the Source into a playable
|
||||
story. To see that in action, click the Go button for the Onyx project. You'll
|
||||
have to wait just a moment - an Inform project is a surprisingly complicated
|
||||
thing to make, even when the instructions look short - but then the Story pane
|
||||
will open, and you can type in commands as if you were the player. If you're not
|
||||
sure what to type, try typing:</p>
|
||||
|
||||
<blockquote>
|
||||
TEST ME
|
||||
</blockquote>
|
||||
|
||||
<p>The Launcher also offers a larger sample project called "Disenchantment
|
||||
Bay", a story about a boat trip in Alaska. Beyond that, there are around
|
||||
450 Examples in the Documentation, and by clicking on the "save as
|
||||
project" icon you can get playable versions of all of those, too.</p>

<body onLoad="test();">
|

<div id="welcome"><p>Welcome to the new Testing panel. This combines the old Skein and
|
||||
Transcript panels. Like them, it records every play through the story. It helps with testing
|
||||
because it compares the text this time with the "blessed" text on previous plays. The panel
|
||||
shows oval "knots" representing turns of play.</p></div>
|
||||
|
||||
<div id="title" style="content: ''; clear: both; display: table;"><p><img style="float:left" src="inform://Skein/HelpStoryTitle.png"> The topmost knot is
|
||||
the start position, representing the story before any choices are made.</p></div>
|
||||
|
||||
<div id="purple" style="content: ''; clear: both; display: table;"><p><img style="float:left" src="inform://Skein/HelpPurpleKnot.png">
|
||||
The purple knot marks the position reached at any given moment in the Story panel.</p></div>
|
||||
|
||||
<div id="grey" style="content: ''; clear: both; display: table;"><p><img style="float:left" src="inform://Skein/HelpGreyKnot.png"> Each
|
||||
grey knot represents a command typed in, and the text which resulted. Grey means it's not
|
||||
selected: click it to select.</p></div>
|
||||
|
||||
<div id="blue" style="content: ''; clear: both; display: table;"><p><img style="float:left" src="inform://Skein/HelpBlueKnot.png"> A blue
|
||||
knot is a grey knot that has been selected. Click it again to unselect.</p></div>
|
||||
|
||||
<div id="report" style="content: ''; clear: both; display: table;"><p>The yellow box shows the text produced the last time the selected (blue
|
||||
knot) commands were typed in. The arrows show which command led to what.</p></div>
|
||||
|
||||
<div id="tick" style="content: ''; clear: both; display: table;"><p>Text is automatically compared against an earlier version known to be
|
||||
correct, called the "blessed" version.
|
||||
|
||||
<p><img style="float:left" src="inform://Skein/Trans-tick-off.png"> The tick icon
|
||||
is shown if that turn's text failed to match. Green highlighting shows text added since the
|
||||
"blessed" version, red highlighting shows text removed. (All green must mean there's no
|
||||
"blessed" version, so that all text is new.) If you agree that the current text is correct,
|
||||
click the tick icon. If you don't agree, you'll need to rewrite your story to produce
|
||||
different text next time.</div>
|
||||
|
||||
<div id="cross" style="content: ''; clear: both; display: table;"><p><img style="float:left" src="inform://Skein/Trans-cross-off.png">
|
||||
The cross icon is only shown if that turn's text was correct, that is, if it exactly
|
||||
matched the "blessed" version. Click the cross to "curse" the turn - that removes the blessing.</p></div>
|
||||
|
||||
<div id="badge" style="content: ''; clear: both; display: table;"><p><img style="float:left" src="inform://Skein/HelpBadgedBlueKnot.png">
|
||||
The red star on a knot means that the text definitely had a "blessed" version but that the
|
||||
most recent play failed to match it - so this is a knot where there's a problem.</p></div>
|
||||
|
||||
<div id="threads" style="content: ''; clear: both; display: table;"><p>The black "threads" between the knots show the sequence of play. Time runs
|
||||
downwards, so later turns are below earlier ones.</p></div>
|
||||
|
||||
<div id="knots" style="content: ''; clear: both; display: table;"><p>Once a turn is played in the Story panel, by typing in a command, another knot will appear here.</p></div>
|
||||
|
||||
<div id="moreknots" style="content: ''; clear: both; display: table;"><p>As more turns are played in the Story panel, more knots will appear here.</p></div>
|
||||
|
||||
<div id="menu" style="content: ''; clear: both; display: table;"><p><img style="float:left" src="inform://Skein/HelpGreyKnotMenu.png"> Hover the mouse over a knot to see the
|
||||
pop-up menu button for it - clicking this gives more advanced options.</p></div>
|
||||
|
||||
<div id="welcomead" style="content: ''; clear: both; display: table;"><p>In addition to Hide/Show Help, the top of this panel has two buttons for advanced users. Save Transcript
|
||||
lets you save out the text from the currently selected thread of play. Play All
|
||||
systematically plays through every variation in the diagram, restarting the story
|
||||
as needed to do so, so that it tests every knot.</p></div>
