-Nethack is a rogue-like dungeon exploration game.
-
-Originally Nethack was written using a TTY interface. The "graphics" are made
-up of ASCII characters. This SlackBuild will build the TTY interface by default.
-
-To build and use the X11 interface (which retains the tty interface) two things
-are required:
- 1) run the SlackBuild with FLAVOR=_X11
- example: FLAVOR=_X11 sh nethack.SlackBuild
- 2) if X is running either run these two commands as
- the user logged into X, or restart X:
- xrdb -merge /etc/X11/app-defaults/NetHack
- xset +fp /usr/X11R6/lib/X11/fonts/misc
- (I recommend restarting X and letting everything initialize properly)
-
-To build and use the Qt interface (which retains the TTY and X11 interfaces)
-two things are required:
- 1) run the SlackBuild with FLAVOR=_Qt
- example: FLAVOR=_Qt sh nethack.SlackBuild
- 2) if X is running either run these two commands as
- the user logged into X, or restart X:
- xrdb -merge /etc/X11/app-defaults/NetHack
- xset +fp /usr/X11R6/lib/X11/fonts/misc
- (I recommend restarting X and letting everything initialize properly)
-
-It is recommended that if you are using the Qt client that you copy
-/etc/nethack/nethackrc.qt to ~/.nethackrc post-install. This will make the
-Qt client more "pretty" and usable. The Nethack Guidbook is included in
-/usr/doc with this package, and is available at http://www.nethack.org.
-A full list of options and settings can be found in the Guidebook.
-In-game help can be accessed with the "?" key.
-
-Nethack will choose its default mode in the order Qt > X11 > TTY. You can
-run the interface of your choice with nethack-tty, nethack-x11, or nethack-qt
-depending on which interfaces you decided to build with FLAVOR.
-
-Requirements:
- TTY interface: >=ncurses-5.0
- X11 interface:
- >=ncurses-5.0 >=x11-6.9.0 >=x11-devel-6.9.0
- >=x11-fonts-6.9.0-* (uses 'times' and 'fixed' fonts by default)
- Qt interface: All X11 requirements as well as >=qt-3.3.6
