That is the exactly the suggested compiler in this blog post. (These repos have been compiled with it for a while. The biggest change in these [Internet Archive-uploaded] repos is an official Microsoft-backed MIT License as opposed to assuming Fair Use for Archival Use prior to now.)

I'm hoping Microsoft may have a chance to open source more of the original Infocom compilers and VMs, even if they would be hard to run on modern machines, in later expansions of these repos.

Zilf liked it, but Zapf is flagged by Windows 11 Smart App Control as potentially dangerous to my machine...

And there's no way to turn it off for one app.

And if I turn it off, I can only turn it back on by re-installing Windows.

What the bloody...

So now I want to download and build.

But it's .net 10, so I apparently need VS 2026, which I hadn't bothered to install yet.

Oh my.
