# These correspond to sections 1, 2, 5, 6, 9, 10, 11, 13, and 14 in the old
# adventure.text format. Sections 3, 4, 7, and 8 haven't moved yet.
# Section 12 was obsolete.

# Message strings may include certain special character sequences to
# denote that the program must provide parameters to insert into a
# message when the message is printed. These sequences are:
# %S = The letter 'S' or nothing (if a given value is exactly 1)
# %W = A word (up to 10 characters)
# %L = A word mapped to lower-case letters
# %U = A word mapped to upper-case letters
# %C = A word mapped to lower-case, first letter capitalised
# %T = Several words of text, ending with a word of -1
# %1 = A 1-digit number
# %2 = A 2-digit number
# ...
# %9 = A 9-digit number
# %B = Variable number of blanks
# %! = The entire message should be suppressed
# FIXME: Hint texts shouldn't be in arbitrary_messages, but inlined here
