OK, to start off with, 'The Institute' is the type of adventure where you
do a lot of dashing from point 'A', to point 'C', maybe a quick stop-off
at point 'B', then back again.  This means, that there are a lot of moves
required to solve this adventure (around 325). So since you can only save
one game per disk, I suggest that you take the files "VENSAV" and "VENLOD",
and place them on a few other disks so that you will be able to save more
then one game.

Next, I'd like to point out that there are also a lot of moves that you
would not need to do if you wanted to go a bit more faster through the
solve. So, I have included an asterisk (one of these "*") in front of these
moves. When you see one of these, you can either ignore it, or follow, but,
if there are more then one them in a row, don't start in the middle or
you'll  find something won't work.

You should follow everything in brackets, and in parenthesis are comments
or extra directions I might make.
