Made some grammatical changes -- MGH - 08 Nov 2002

Changed the digestion metaphor to an ingestion metaphor. Added a link, removed extraneous links. -- DGJ - 13 May 2003


Can we add a list of interpreters by (auth) system (eg: agt, zmachine, etc) , since this is category: interps? or not on this page? -- Stu 21:42, 19 Nov 2005 (Central Standard Time)

  • We might want two lists, actually: a list of interpreters by origin platform, and a list of interpreters by destination operating system. But I'll be happy with whatever info on interpreters I can get. And yes, you may add the list(s) here. Thanks. -- David Welbourn 22:20, 19 Nov 2005 (Central Standard Time)

Link to article instead of homepage

I think it's better if we link to the articles of each terp (if they have one). I see no reason to link directly to the homepage, since the article itself will provide a homepage link. Also, if a homepage changes, only the article needs to be updated, thus we avoid outdated and/or dead links.

I'll go ahead and change the links for the terps that have an ifwiki article. RealNC 22:07, 7 August 2011 (PDT)

Mobile apps & Browser players

(Context: February 23, 2017) I think the age of this wiki's content is showing in there is not a category for iPhone/Android/Amazon tablet apps/etc. Someone who has longer history with this wiki's evolution want to set up a structure for either platform-specific apps - or a category or ???. Thank you.

Second Table

I would like to see Scott_Adams, Level9 and other interpreters listed as to which are supported on various platforms/apps. Thoughts on how to implement this in the wiki?
