Chapter 15 - More Kludges

Section 1 - Disallowing "AGAIN"

["Again" and "g" are broken in Multiple Actors, at least with my kludges. Worse yet, "robots, again"--which I think is supposed to give an error anyway, look through the parser for a comment on "frog, jump"--sends it into an infinite loop. So let's just zap any command that contains "g" or "again" with a helpful error message.]

First after reading a command when the player's command includes "again/g":

say "Apologies, but this game does not support 'AGAIN.' In many interpreters you can press the up arrow to load previous commands onto your command line. On iFrotz you can double-tap the command line to bring up a command history. ";

reject the player's command.
