Comment:

 I added the detection entries. You have to rename "grail" to "grail.j2" or
 "grail.jac" for running it.

 However, there are problems with running these early games. Apparently,
 the original interpreter was more forgiving or it allowed to have both
 object and location to be named identically.

 Additionally, some of the built-in variables such as "counter" are
 clashing with the object names too.

 Perhaps more work on JACL is required for running these two games.
