FrobTADS is a complete rewrite of the Unixconsole-version of TADS ("Text AdventureDevelopment System"). It uses curses (or ncurses)and provides an interpreter to play gamesdeveloped with TADS as well as the TADS 2 and 3development tools. It adds support for a number ofrelatively recent user interface featuresincluding full support for text and backgroundcolors, TADS 3 banner windows, and timed input.It's also much more portable and more easilymaintainable, as it's built to modern Unix standards.

Changes:
TADS has been updated to 3.0.16. Embedding resources in Tads 3 game files (like a GameInfo.txt) was broken; in the case of the GameInfo.txt resource, this resulted in third-party tools like Babel and Zoom not being able to read this resource. This has been fixed.
