Could anyone tell me if lines were cut for the CD version as happened with Freddy Pharkas? In other words, does the original floppy version have more text content? I have played both from beginning to end, but the floppy was a long, long time ago. When I was a kid.
I just remember getting more of a feeling that here or there was a missed opportunity to include a funny throwaway line when playing the CD version. So I was wondering if my memory is just playing tricks or if this reaction is based on there actually being more content in the floppy version.

In my recollection there were. I can check it up with SCI viewer to be sure.

It's going to require more research than the superficial browse I just did (and that means check by playing too!), but so far it's been interesting:
On the floppy version you can find outlines of scenes that were removed for the CD version: CD doesnt seem to have superfluous files.
Differences are few in the two files I compared (205: in hotel hallway, and 210: Gammie). Occasionally line orders have swapped. In 210 I found no differences.
On the 205 floppy, I found the following line that's not on the CD 205:
"I wonder if I were to whisper into this window frame, then ran all the way down the hall and held my ear against the frame way down there, if I could hear my own voice echo?"
Also interesting: both copies contain the death I was unable to find in the game: the one you get at the wooden fence.
