Hamilton Hall
A Minigames competition entry

This should probably be considered as a speed-if, WIP, or some bizarre test of
interpreter compliance. I'd recommend a version of Frotz to play it; it is
unfinishable in Nitfol because of an obscure bug.  Bug reports, questions and
comments are welcome to cknight at gn apc org.

The finished product is unlikely to be more than 30K. (1.5K is just
stack space).  (However, the files it potentially generates could run into hundreds
of megabytes.  You have, or will have, been warned.)

"AMUSING" NOTES

Well, if you happen to *like* mazes, you've got 65,000 here, from small
to unfeasibly large.  To even *more* unfeasibly large.

XYZZY works if you have the slip of paper.  The allusion may not be to what
you think.

Hamilton Hall is in fact a Wetherspoons pub in Liverpool St station.
