== Description ==

Glulx is a story file format for [[Interactive Fiction]] games. It is developed and maintained by Andrew Plotkin. The purpose of Glulx is to eliminate some limitations of the original [[Z-code Z-machine]] format, most notably the file size limit. Glulx files may be stand-alone or they may be included in a [[Blorb]] archive. The standard file extension for a Glulx file is .ulx.
