Long time no post!  4 years.  I still play Larn, but it's 90% ULarn now.  Just wanted to post this screen grab from a game I did yesterday.  I found four Scrolls of Gem Perfection, so I wanted to see just how high I could get them.  Regular UNIX Larn had a limit, I think gems topped out at around 35,000, but as you can see there doesn't seem to be a limit in ULarn. I ended this game with something like 1.5 million gold.  I decided to drop most of it so I wouldn't get stuck paying taxes for a RL month.

Hey would it be possible to post a zip of your version? Having trouble getting ularn to compile recently!

I might sound old, but I started playing the ascii version of larn back in 88. I know because my fiance and I would play at the university lab on their 286's. We got married the next year and have been married 28 years now...we still play it, but like you, we stick to the Ularn version. It was something fun we did to kill time and we both have it on our computers and play it often.
