NetHack, then read it again!
-1. Building NetHack requires a C compiler (either VAX C, DEC C, or GNU C)
- and VMS version V4.6 or later (but see note #9). This release has been
- tested on VAX/VMS V5.5-2 and V6.2, and Alpha/VMS V6.2 and V7.1. The

+ VAX C, or GNU C) and VMS version V4.6 or later (but see note #9).
+ This release has been tested with Compaq C V6.4 on Alpha/VMS V7.1
+ and with VAX C V3.2 and GNU C 2.7.1 on VAX/VMS V5.5-2. The build
+ procedure (vmsbuild.com) should not need to be modified; it accepts
an option for selecting the compiler, and it can detect different
versions which might require specific command qualifiers. Versions
of VAXC earlier than V2.3 will produce many warning messages (about
200 per source file; over to 25,000 total!), but NetHack has been
verified to compile, link, and execute correctly when built with VAXC
- V2.2 using vmsbuild.com. There is also a set of Makefiles suitable
- for use with MMS; they may or may not work with other make utilities.

2. Make sure all the NetHack files are in the appropriate directory
structure. You should set up a directory--referred to as "top" below
The following subdirectories may be present, but are not useful for
building NetHack on VMS and are not required:
[.sys .amiga] -- AmigaDOS
- [.sys .amiga .splitter]
[.sys .atari] -- Atari TOS
[.sys .be] -- BeBox BeOS
[.sys .mac] -- Macintosh
- [.sys .mac .old]
[.sys .msdos] -- MSDOS for IBM PCs and compatibles
- [.sys .msdos .old]
[.sys .os2] -- OS/2
[.sys .share .sounds] -- AIFF format audio files
[.sys .unix] -- guess :-)
Notes:
1. Save files and bones files from earlier versions will not work with
- 3.4.0. The scoreboard file (RECORD) from 3.3.1 will work; one from
+ 3.4.0. The scoreboard file (RECORD) from 3.3.x will work; one from
version 3.2.x is slightly different format but should be compatible.
2. To specify user-preference options in your environment, define the
tradeoff for enabling checkpoint is that using it makes level changes
do more I/O and take longer. The "menustyle" option controls some
aspects of the user interface, and can be set to "menustyle:traditional"
- to make 3.4.0, 3.3.x, or 3.2.x behave more like 3.1.3.
+ to make nethack behave more like older versions.
