Yes. There is a later FORTRAN version (also written

Bob Supnik) that includes the newest puzzles (palantir,

fine on RSTS/E. Dunno what version might be required,
but it looks like you are running 9.2 and I would expect
that to be acceptable (I wouldn't try it on version 7, at
least not at first, just out of concern of resource constraints).
You don't happen to have a copy do you? The source I found says it's good for:
=
Dungeon is a maze-solving game for solitaire play. V3.2 runs on any
OpenVMS VAX, OpenVMS AXP, OSF/1 AXP, or RISC ULTRIX system
The commands in
build.com don't work, as I bet they are for VMS. I
haven't tried to compile or link anything on a RSTS system in about 30
years -- and I was never into Fortran.
Kermit is certainly one way to do it. That's how I was moving
Infocom game data files around on Dave McGuire's PDP-11/70
at VCFe last year (after I updated the RT-11 game engine to
run on RSTS/E, my first foray into RSTS application programming).
the PUTR utility (as above in the thread) works great. I just can't
get anywhere after that. I'd have better luck if I was 13 again... I
was a lot better at this back in the day! (;
Good luck!
Thanks! So far, no success..
