Package: xtron
Version: 1.1a-0

There is no help available to the xtron player(s) from the game screen.
There is no man page or info documentation for xtron.
The only documentation I could find (/usr/doc/xtron/README) referred to a
  file called ``CHANGES'' which contains further documentation (on how to
  change the computer player skill level) but this file is not installed
  on my system.
The player 2 controls (8, 4, 2 & 6 or the arrow keys) do not work from the
  keypad.  I realize that these are seperate keys from the dedicated arrow
  keys and the number keys above the keyboard, but other programs are able
  to deal with them as though they were the same.  Even if it is too much
  trouble to check multiple sets of keys, the numbers referred to in the
  README file should mean the ones on the keypad, as they are much easier
  for a player to use.

Most of this probably needs to be referred back to the author, but at least
  we could get the CHANGES file.


Thanks,
