Digging Time!

For Z-code interpreters
Solution by Garry Francis
----------------------------------------
This is a minimal solution. You'll need to EXAMINE lots of things for this solution to make
sense. Scores are shown in brackets as +A=B, where A is points earned and B is cumulative points
earned. Some optional (but significant) commands are shown in brackets. These can be omitted once
you know what to do.
(I) (you're carrying an alien digging tool and tracking sensor)
N
DIG (+1=1)
N (rockslide prevents your return)
(X JIM) (he's holding signal emitter)
(X EMITTER) (it has a blue button)
PRESS BUTTON (+2=3) (emitter turns off and there's a message from your commlink)
D
(X TREE) (Kevin is embedded in it)
(X KEVIN) (he warns you that planet is dying and tells you to dig)
DIG (+3=6) (you find a typewriter)
X TYPEWRITER (paper leaf falls off tree)
GET LEAF
(X IT) (it's blank)
PUT IT IN TYPEWRITER (typewriter automatically prints out text)
X IT (it's a warning, followed by explosion that sends you into void)
(I) (you're now carrying signal emitter)
PRESS BUTTON (+4=10) (you're saved, hooray)
***THE END***
