<div>Man, you weren't kidding about the complexity of the UI.
Implementing something just like that would likely prove
difficult in Glk without a lot of extra extensions to handle
overlaying the windows, making them draggable and so on.
Definitely something to leave as low priority for the
foreseeable future :)</div>

I defy anyone to find a sensible layout for all of that! You
may think <br>
you can do it, if you close the "Compass", "Inventory", and
"Items in <br>
room" windows, and for a while you can... and then you
realize that not <br>
every image is the same size, and you have to move the
"Graphpics" <br>
window out of the way...<br>
