Compiling "Deadline" in I6

[EJoyce]

I’m interested in playing “Deadline” and have been trying to compile it from the I6 source, but I’ve run into an issue. The readme included with the source files says:

Important note: You will have to add two lines to the file parserm.h to be able to compile the game: The game provides its own InformLibrary object and thus the object in parserm.h has to be removed. You can do this easily by adding an #ifdef before it that’s just never true and an #endif after it:

#ifdef NEVER_TRUE;
Object InformLibrary
...
has proper;
#endif;

However, to the best of my ctrl+F-borne knowledge, the phrase “has proper;” does not appear at all in the parserm.h document. As such, I cannot find where to put the #endif. What am I missing?

I’m using Inform Library 6/10, as suggested by the Deadline readme.

Thanks!

That line is present in library 6/11. For reference, Object InformLibrary begins on line 4468 and ends on line 4769. The next block after this object is a global function:

[ AdvanceWorldClock;

Hope that helps.
