A Guide to Converting a
ZX Spectrum PAWed Text Adventure
to Amstrad CP/M for CPC/PCW

Having recently used inPAWs to convert quite a few ZX Spectrum text adventures to run on Amstrad CP/M I thought I'd put this guide together to help other authors that may want to do the same thing. Let me know if any of the steps are unclear or if you experience any issues that aren't covered by this document.
