and/or mind health. It is provided without any guarantee of any kind, use

Development/test platform: GNU/Linux glibc 2.1.2 (a PII400, 512MB of RAM,
IDE disks and a Ati Rage LT pro video Card, a SB16 PCI). It works well
on this system, even with --scale 2. Further scales may slow downs the
display.
Also: see the TODO file. There are many things wrong, missing, buggy and
itchy.


Requirements
============

Basically a GNU/Linux system, with Simple DirectMedia Library (SDL)
installed.
See the INSTALL file for the detailed software requirements and other
supported OSes.
It doesn't require a powerful processor, neither a lot of memory. Amounts
and uses will be evaluated later.


Usage
=====

The look & feel attempts to reproduce former and original Dungeon Master
running on Atari ST.
Since there're many versions of Dungeons Master (up to 3.6 on PC,
Amiga), further development will attempt to provide compliance w/ all the
different DM versions.

o Keys: try the numeric pad (1-6, but soon configurable), ESC to quit.
  Mouse is only usable to press buttons that belong to doors.
  F12 saves a screenshot.
o Mouse: a two-button mouse will be OK.
