1 This is the source for the Roguelike Gallery's versions of Rogue and other
|
|
2 early roguelike games.
|
|
3
|
|
4 The code was obtained from the Roguelike Restoration Project
|
|
5 (rogue.rogueforge.net). Modifications have been made mainly for compatibility
|
|
6 with the dgamelaunch online play system. Some bugs have also been fixed, and
|
|
7 the build process slightly improved. The essential flavor of a codebase half
|
|
8 as old as stored-program computing machinery remains unchanged.

10 To install on Unix (including OS X):
|
106
|
11
|
|
12 If you checked out the source from Mercurial, run 'autoreconf' first.
|
|
13
|
|
14 Build by running './configure' and then 'make'. If you just want to play the
|
|
15 game from your own user account, 'configure' won't need any options. The
|
|
16 games will keep the high score lists in whatever directory you run them from.
|
|
17
|
|
18 For a multi-user installation, you will need to set the '--enable-setgid',
|
|
19 '--enable-savedir', '--enable-scorefile', and '--enable-logfile' options. Run
|
|
20 'make install' after building.
|
|
21
|
|
22 There are other possible options; run './configure --help' for a full list.
|
|
23
|
|
24 To install on Windows:
|
|
25
|
|
26 Use the included Visual Studio solution files. Warning: they have not been
|
|
27 tested recently.
|
|

|
29 You can also build on Windows using MinGW. Make sure pdcurses is installed.
|
|
30 You will have to go into the '/lib' folder and copy 'libpdcurses.a' to
|
|
31 'libcurses.a', and 'libpdcurses.dll.a' to 'libcurses.dll.a'; this should get
|
|
32 fixed soon.
|
|
33
|
|
34 It is recommended to run 'configure' with the '--disable-logfile' option, and
|
|
35 'make' with the 'LDFLAGS=-static' option.
|
|
36
|
|
37 The games should all build with MinGW, but there are still bugs with arrow keys
|
|
38 and saving/restoring.

|
|
41 the manpages may be outdated, but the guides to playing should be accurate.
