Dialog-it

Italian translation of the standard library of the Dialog language.

It's an early release that needs a lot of improvements.

More advanced versions will be available in this repository: https://github.com/YouDevIt/Dialogo

About Dialog

Dialog is a domain-specific language for creating works of interactive fiction created by Linus Åkesson. The official site is https://www.linusakesson.net/dialog/

About this library

In this repository you can find the translation of the standard library (originally written to support English) to write interactive fiction (once known as text adventures) in Italian.

How to set up?

1. First you need to download this repository in a folder of choice.

2. Then you must download these two files:

   1. http://hd0.linusakesson.net/files/dialog-0m03_0_46.zip
   2. http://hd0.linusakesson.net/files/aamachine-0.5.3.zip

Probably, at this time, more recent versions of the two files will be available here: https://www.linusakesson.net/dialog/ and here: https://www.linusakesson.net/dialog/aamachine/ but the translation available in this repository (see the file "stdlib_it.dg" in the folder "stdlib_it_0_46") is compatible with those versions of the compiler and the virtual machine.

3. Unzip those two files (preserving the directory structure) in the same folder of the repository.

4. In the folder "stdlib_it_0_46", there are two batch files:

   1. "_start_debugger.bat" executes the example "prova.dg" in the Dialog debugger
   2. "_compile_for_web.bat" compiles the example creating a web page to play
