Conversation Menu Module

ConvMenu is a module for adding non-modal conversation menus to TADS 3 games, while retaining the powerful conversational framework provided by TADS 3, simply by adding captions to TopicEntries.

The code should be fairly well-documented, but a hastily written sample game is also available.

Due to lack of inspiration, I ripped Ron (the insurance salesman) from the T3 Sample Game and Herman Toothrot (the meditating hermit) from Monkey Island II. I hope Mike and LucasArts don't mind.
