Mike -

It seems the archive no longer has DM3 available (unless I am not looking in the right place), which in my humble opinion was a BIG MISTAKE. Removing it. In many ways it was better than DM4 and there weren't THAT many changes in Inform between the two versions of the manual. But that means the Inform Windows Help file (based on DM3) I really liked is also no longer there. (Maybe it's where I am not looking.)

So I've put it up on one of my ftp spaces.

If you have a Windows machine available you can download it and see why I really, really, really liked it. It took a lot of work and is extensively cross referenced. If and when I still use Inform (looking at/working on my old WIPs), I still use it and have used it for years ever since it became available. It is a *great* ELECTRONIC reference.

The whole file may not have been uploaded -- it may have been truncated due to my limited ftp space, hard to tell. If you look at it and find it is (or anyone else does), please let me know and I will free up some ftp space to make more room for it.

HTH, Doe
