The parchment project seems to be able to handle Z-code/inform/glulx games, and while think it just
makes use of something like javascript to update like a text area text field, I tested it very
quickly, and seemed to work quite usably.
Here's the sort of front-end interface, where you can try it out:
http://iplayif.com/
and, here's the google code/project page:
http://code.google.com/p/parchment/
See that they do though reckon on the project source pages that the actual source code is hosted on
gitHub - various pieces/parts, including interpreter, format converter, etc.:
http://code.google.com/p/parchment/wiki/Source?tm=4
Anyway - on the main code gitHub page, I hit shift + enter on code link, and in new window
downloaded a zip file of the source code:
https://github.com/curiousdannii/parchment
Did now also just quickly dump parchment source in my wamp server www folder, and it ran fine on my
own machine as well, FWIW.
Stay well
