-This is dopewars 1.5.12, a game simulating the life of a drug dealer in
-New York. The aim of the game is to make lots and lots of money...
-unfortunately, you start the game with a hefty debt, accumulating interest,
-and the cops take a rather dim view of drug dealing...
-
-These are brief instructions; see the HTML documentation for full information.
-
-dopewars 1.5.12 servers should handle clients as old as version 1.4.3 with
-hardly any visible problems (the reverse is also true). However, it is
-recommended that both clients and servers are upgraded to 1.5.12!
-
-INSTALLATION
-
-Either...
-
-1. Get the relevant RPM from http://dopewars.sourceforge.net/
-
-Or...
-
-2. Get the tarball dopewars-1.5.12.tar.gz from the same URL
- Extract it via tar -xvzf dopewars-1.5.12.tar.gz
- Follow the instructions in the INSTALL file in the newly-created
- dopewars-1.5.12 directory
-
-Once you're done, you can safely delete the RPM, tarball and dopewars
-directory. The dopewars binary is all you need!
-
-dopewars stores its high score files by default in /usr/share/dopewars.sco
-This will be created by make install or by RPM installation. A different high
-score file can be selected with the -f switch.
-
-WIN32 INSTALLATION
-
-dopewars now compiles as a console or regular application under Win32
-(Windows 95, 98, NT, 2000, XP). Almost all functionality of the standard Unix
-binary is retained; for example, all of the same command line switches are
-supported. However, for convenience, the configuration file is the more
-Windows-friendly "dopewars-config.txt".
-
-The easiest way to install the Win32 version is to download the precompiled
-binary. The supplied configure script, however, should build the binary
-correctly under Cygwin (see the INSTALL file for details).
-
-USAGE
-
-dopewars has built-in client-server support for multi-player games. For a
-full list of options configurable on the command line, run dopewars with
-the -h switch.
-
-dopewars -a
-This is "antique" dopewars; it tries to keep to the original dopewars, based
-on the "Drug Wars" game by John E. Dell, as closely as possible.
-
-dopewars
-By default, dopewars supports multi-player games. On starting a game, the
-program will attempt to connect to a dopewars server so that players can send
-messages back and forth, and shoot each other if they really want to...
-
-dopewars -s
-Starts a dopewars server. This sits in the background and handles multi-player
-games. You probably want to use the -l command line option too to direct its
-log output to somewhere sensible.
-
-dopewars -c
-Create and run a computer dopewars player. This will attempt to connect
-to a dopewars server, and if this succeeds, it will then participate in
-multi-player dopewars games.
-
-CONFIGURATION
-
-Most of the dopewars defaults (for example, the location of the high score file,
-the port and server to connect to, the names of the drugs and guns, etc.) can be
-configured by adding suitable entries to the dopewars configuration file. The
-global file /etc/dopewars is read first, and can then be overridden by the local
-settings in ~/.dopewars. All of the settings here can also be set on the command
-line of an interactive dopewars server when no players are logged on. See the
-file "example-cfg" for an example configuration file, and for a brief
-explanation of each option, type "help" in an interactive server. A subset of
-the configuration options can also be tweaked via the "Options" menu item
-in the GTK+/Win32 client.
-
-PLAYING
-
-dopewars is supposed to be fairly self-explanatory. You should be able to
-pick the basics up fairly quickly, but still be discovering subtleties for
-_ages_ ;) If you're _really_ stuck, send me an email. I might even answer it!
-
-Clue: buy drugs when they're cheap, sell them when they're expensive. The Bronx
-and Ghetto are "special" locations. Anything more would spoil the fun. ;)
-
-BUGS
-
-Well, there are bound to be lots. Let me know if you find any, and I'll see
-if I can fix 'em... of course, a working patch would be even nicer! ;)
-
-LICENCE
-
-dopewars is released under the GNU General Public License; see the text file
-LICENCE for further information. dopewars is copyright (C) Ben Webb 1998-2015.
-The dopewars icons are copyright (C) Ocelot Mantis 2001.

-SUPPORT

-Enquiries about dopewars may be sent to this address (keep them sensible
-please ;) Bug fixes and reports, improvements and patches are also welcomed.
