Help upgrading 1997 zMud maps
 
I hope someone might be able to help me.

I play Mume, and have found some old maps made on zMud that were saved in 1997. It looks like it's an amazing archive of Mume from nearing 30 years ago. Viewing in atext editor, the room descriptions are there, which I've found nowhere else from so long ago.

I'd love to update the files so that I can view and export them, but I've run into a series of roadblocks.

Firstly - I have a Mac - not insurmountable, but when I try to run any zMud versions I have errors. cMud works though.

Secondly, it's .zzz and .map files. zMud version 7.xx will convert these automatically, but see problem 1 :)

Thirdly, it will then be the newer zMud file format, but I haven't been able to get the file converter to cMud to run either.

Is there anyone who might be able to do me a favour and convert the files for me?
