Glider4/Houses/House Full of Stuff Read Me.txt
John Calhoun e178486ce8 Initial check-in
There was an effort to organize the files a little bit for presenting
in this repository. I hope I have included everything needed for both
Glider 4.05 and the Room Editor 1.0.3. The code is in Pascal — THINK
Pascal was used to build the original. I’m not sure how someone would
open the project files (or for that matter the resource files) these
days. Never mind there is also a .o file (SMS.a) representing a
statically linked library (from hand-coded 68K assembly) for doing
performant 4-channel sound on 68K Macs in the day (this was licensed
from Patrick Buckland — I’m sure he won’t mind my preserving it here
for posterity, right?). Art files, sound files of unknown format…. What
a joy it will be sleuthing through these files…. Enjoy.

The Story of The House Full of Stuff
In the beginning there was no House Full of Stuff. Instead, there were lots of little three and four room houses that had been created one after another. I tried to make them bigger, but, to be honest, I got pretty darn sick of testing them out after building three or four rooms.
Then, I had this thought: Why not stick all these little houses together, one after another, and make one big house, with lots and lots of stuff? So that's what I did, and now there is one big house, called the House Full of Stuff. As you go through it, you can see how the house is divided into distinct sections; each section was once a little house unto itself.
More than just another house file, I believe that this house demonstrates The Way Glider Houses Ought To Be Made. Instead of getting pooped out after creating 30 or so rooms, try making a few small houses over time, and then, when you're ready, copy and paste 'em together.
Hints:
¥ Room names sometimes have hints built into them
¥ There are many ways to get through the entire house without hitting every room; however, it is possibleÑand preferable, points-wiseÑto try and get through all of 'em.
