+Nethack is a rogue-like dungeon exploration game.
+
+Originally Nethack was written using a TTY interface.  The "graphics" are made 
+up of ASCII characters.  This SlackBuild will build the TTY interface by default.
+
+To build and use the X11 interface (which retains the tty interface) two things 
+are required:
+    1) run the SlackBuild with FLAVOR=_X11
+       example: FLAVOR=_X11 sh nethack.SlackBuild
+    2) if X is running either run these two commands as
+       the user logged into X, or restart X:
+       xrdb -merge /etc/X11/app-defaults/NetHack
+       xset +fp /usr/X11R6/lib/X11/fonts/misc
+       (I recommend restarting X and letting everything initialize properly)
+
+To build and use the Qt interface (which retains the TTY and X11 interfaces) 
+two things are required:
+    1) run the SlackBuild with FLAVOR=_Qt
+       example: FLAVOR=_Qt sh nethack.SlackBuild
+    2) if X is running either run these two commands as
+       the user logged into X, or restart X:
+       xrdb -merge /etc/X11/app-defaults/NetHack
+       xset +fp /usr/X11R6/lib/X11/fonts/misc
+       (I recommend restarting X and letting everything initialize properly)
+
+It is recommended that if you are using the Qt client that you copy 
+/etc/nethack/nethackrc.qt to ~/.nethackrc post-install.  This will make the 
+Qt client more "pretty" and usable.  The Nethack Guidbook is included in 
+/usr/doc with this package, and is available at http://www.nethack.org.  
+A full list of options and settings can be found in the Guidebook.  
+In-game help can be accessed with the "?" key.
+
+Nethack will choose its default mode in the order Qt > X11 > TTY.  You can 
+run the interface of your choice with nethack-tty, nethack-x11, or nethack-qt 
+depending on which interfaces you decided to build with FLAVOR.
+
+Requirements:
+  TTY interface: >=ncurses-5.0
+  X11 interface: 
+    >=ncurses-5.0 >=x11-6.9.0 >=x11-devel-6.9.0 
+    >=x11-fonts-6.9.0-* (uses 'times' and 'fixed' fonts by default)
+  Qt interface: All X11 requirements as well as >=qt-3.3.6
