This directory contains the "official" BINARY distribution of PC
NetHack Patchlevel 9 (the source code is stored in /pub/NH3.0).

You must use BINARY mode to transfer the files from here all the way
down to your PC -- even the "text" files are in (non-Unix) DOS format 
to make verifying their sizes more reliable.

If you are transferring these files on 360k floppies (you will need
two) you should copy INSTALL.BAT and README onto *both* disks;
otherwise just getting all these files into the same directory will
suffice.

One word of warning: you shouldn't install *from* the same directory
you are installing *to*, otherwise INSTALL.BAT will delete itself.

Give copies to your friends, but above all:

			       Hack On!
