[Scummvm-devel] Merging TsAGE engine into trunk

[Filippos Karapetis]

Wow, that's fantastic news! Well done guys :)

The engine sounds mature enough to be added, so it gets my vote to be
merged in the tree. It would be good if the engine's commit history
could be grafted in as well.

Congrats again for a very nice work!

Regards
Filippos
