The working state, from here to ENDINGS. The part from SAVED_STATE to PICTURES_ON is the game's own -- where things stand, the score, the riddle, the map -- and is what START keeps a copy of for a new game and SAVE writes to tape; the rest is scratch for the parser, the printer and the action in hand. DRUNK, at DRUNK, and ACTOR, at ACTOR, have blocks of their own.
