— Mapper —
I knew it was something simple. This morning when I got up, I got right into it. The problem was, I wasn’t reading the control record, which has the record count. I fixed that and things are moving along again. I have the add room routine about halfway done, I just have to pretty it up.
In order to debug yesterday’s problem, I had to create a subroutine to list the map file in a basic format. Just the room name and the number of the room reached by each direction.
Current Status
The program identifies itself, verifies the existence of an 80 column card, then asks for a map file name. It attempts to open the file and if it does not exist, asks if you want to create a new one. Then we enter the main loop. The options that work at least partially are Add Room, Brute List and Quit. Right now if there is no 80 column card or you do not want to create the map file you supplied, then program ends.
