this folder contains a collection of various text files (spoilers,
manuals, faqs) related to the game nethack.

there are many communities around but one of my personal favorite
is certainly NAO; you can play online with `telnet nethack.alt.org'
and enjoy your journey with many other hackers of interest by
chatting on #nethack@irc.libera.chat.  pay a visit too on
/dev/null/nethack for its well known yearly tournament for nethack
players.  to ask for help you can post in the newsgroup
rec.games.roguelike.nethack.

and whatever happens, don't forget that the devteam thinks of
everything!
