some research to find out if a cross-compiler exists that:
- produces output for XX-Platform.
- executes on a platform that you use and love (Linux, Windows,
- Mac OS X are some examples of platforms that have cross-compilers
+ macOS are some examples of platforms that have cross-compilers
for other targets available)
o Then, make the community, devteam, and others aware that you're starting
git config --global user.name "MY NAME"
git config --global user.email USER@EXAMPLE.COM
You probably want to set up a credential cache.
- Mac OS X:
+ macOS (10 - 12):
git config --global credential.helper osxkeychain
Windows:
git config --global credential.helper store
At the time of the most recent official release, NetHack 3.6, it had
been tested to run/compile on:
- Intel Pentium or better (or clone) running Linux, BSDI, or
- Windows (7 through 10)
- Intel 80386 or greater (or clone) boxes running Linux, or BSDI
- Mac OS X 10.11 (follow the instructions in sys/unix, not sys/mac)
+ Intel Pentium or better running Linux, BSDI, or
+ Windows 10 to 11
+ Intel 80386 or greater boxes running Linux, or BSDI
+ macOS 10.11 (El Capitan) to 12 (Monterey) (follow the instructions
+ in sys/unix, not sys/mac)
OpenVMS (aka VMS) V8.4 on Alpha and on Integrity/Itanium/IA64
-
- Instructions have been provided by way of community contribution on:
- msdos protected mode using djgpp including a Linux-host djgpp
- cross-compile
+ Intel 80386 or greater running MS-DOS with DPMI
+ built via Linux-hosted djgpp cross-compiler
Previous versions of NetHack were tested and known to run on the
following systems, but it is unknown if they can still build and
IBM PS/2 and AT compatibles running OS/2 1.1 - 2.0 (and probably
Warp) with Microsoft 6.0, and OS/2 2.0 and up with IBM CSet++ 2.0.

window-port, which evolved from work originally done by Karl Garrison,
has been used in several NetHack variants and on nethack.alt.org and
on www.hardfought.org/nethack/. The optional curses window-port is
- available for Windows, Mac OS X, and Unix (and also DOS).
+ available for Windows, macOS, and Unix (and also DOS).
The Makefiles are configured by default to include the curses
window-port support in your command line Makefile build.
OTHER PLATFORMS
===============
- * PDCurses also work on DOS and OS/2. PDCurses for SDL and ncurses
- exist for Mac OS X. Porting the curses interface to these platforms
- should not be too difficult.
