game, with a Star Trek theem. Players can command one of several ship

object of the game is, basically, to control the Universe, by capturing
enemy planets, killing the enemy, etc.

NOTE: This is the "COW3" client. It has several improvements over the
older servers -- a flashy 256 color mode, sound support, etc. Naturally,
these embellishments require more processing power. If your system is
on the sluggish side, you may like the "BRMH" client (also in ports) better.
NOTE 2: This client is distributed in binary form, because it is a
"Blessed" client, meaning that it has been approved by the "Gods of Netrek"
and has had an RSA key embedded in it. You can, of course, compile your
own client if you wish, but keep in mind that, if you do so, your client
will be "Un-Blessed" and will probably be kicked out of the official
servers. This is to prevent some unscrupulous player from hacking his/her
client to give him/her superhuman powers ("cyborgs", or "borgs").
NOTE 3: This client, since it is still in development, has an expiration
date. The current version of the client will expire on Fri, 4/16/99.

Change PKGDIR from pkg/ to . Also fix places where ${PKGDIR} is spelled out
(many of which are ${PKGDIR}/MESSAGE -> ${PKGMESSAGE} type fixes that
shouldn't have been necessary) and the string "/pkg/" appear. |
