SYNOPSIS

DESCRIPTION

       This  manual  page  explains the Debian package tome .  Tome is a single-player, graphical
       dungeon adventure game using textual characters to represent the walls  and  floors  of  a
       dungeon and the inhabitants therein, in the vein of rogue, hack, nethack, and moria.

       This  version of Tome has been compiled with both ncurses and the X Windowing system.  and
       hence can be played on a virtual console as well as under X.  In the latter case, the game
       pulls up multiple windows.

GETTING STARTED

       To start with, you can just say tome -uTest, and that creates a save file  with  the  file
       name  /var/games/tome/save/<UID>Test.   The  best place to get help is the program itself;
       help is reached by the command ?  and presents a menu of choices.

       Program options can be set  using the = command. To see what  the  various  options  mean,
       access the List of Options help menu with the ?  command.
