Hey! Thanks for writing this, it's pretty fun! I just installed it and it worked well with 9:05.

However, I just installed glulxe to play The Chinese Room and the game wants me to press spacebar to start the game. The bot doesn't seem to recognize any command as that spacebar. Do you have any suggestions?

Right now saving happens in the bot's main directory. It would be handy to set a saves folder (like the games and terps folders) and run the interpreters inside game-specific folders inside the saves folder so that the saves are separated for each game and don't clutter the main folder.

I have a prototype of this change that I haven't extensively tested but I believe should work, and can create a pull request for it if the idea sounds good to you.

The help command has a "who", "basics" and "syntax" topics; the "syntax" topic covers playing games, and the "basics" topic covers the "list" and "launch" commands, but no help topic covers the "detail" or "shutdown" commands.

It may be worth restructuring the list of commands and the list of help topics so it's easier to ensure every command has a brief help description and a full help description, then have the help command print the info that's currently under "who" and "syntax" plus a list of commands with their brief descriptions when called as just "help", but print the command's detailed description when called as "help <command>".

Seriously. There's nothing here.

The detail command fails with an error about a missing variable.
