                NetHack 3.1 -- General information

NetHack 3.1 is a new generation of the dungeon exploration game NetHack.
It is a distant descendent of Hack, and a direct descendent of NetHack 3.0.
It is the product of two years of very intensive effort by the NetHack
Development Team and its porting sub-teams.  Many parts of 3.0 were
rewritten for NetHack 3.1, and many new features were added.

We dedicate the game to the many players of 3.0, with special note of those
who communicated with us and contributed their ideas to the development of
this new version.

(These are the official binaries for Amiga NetHack 3.1.3 - the third
patchlevel of NetHack 3.1.  This file is the readme for NH31P3-1.lzh,
part one of the two parts that make up the distribution.  The other
part is called NH31P3-2.lzh.)

                Amiga NetHack 3.1.3 -- Transferring
Be sure to retrieve the two .lzh files in BINARY mode or they will
not work.  To set binary mode in most versions of ftp type:
  set binary

  
                Amiga NetHack 3.1.3 -- Unpacking

The Amiga NetHack binary distribution comes in two .lzh files.  Extract
the installation instructions from the first archive (probably called
NH31P3-1.lzh) with the following command:
  lz x NH31P3-1.lzh NetHack/ReadMe
and follow the directions.  Note that the ReadMe file will be in a NetHack
subdirectory.

We have been informed that the default stack is not big enough to unpack
the archives with some archivers - if you have trouble unpacking the
archives try increasing your stack to 40000.

For problems with the archives please contact keni@oasys.dt.navy.mil
or use the central address nethack-bugs@linc.cis.upenn.edu.

                  -- Good luck, and happy Hacking --
