SYNOPSIS

       angband [options] [-- suboptions]

DESCRIPTION

       This  manual  page  explains  the  Debian  package  angband .  Angband 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.  Angband 4.2.5 is an official stable release  incorporating  all  the  changes  and
       improvements added since the last official stable release ( Angband 4.2.4).

       This version of Angband has been compiled with ncurses and the X Windowing system and SDL2
       front-ends, and hence can be played on a virtual console as  well  as  under  X.   In  the
       latter cases, the game can use multiple windows.

GETTING STARTED

       To start with, you can just say angband -uTest, and that creates a save file with the file
       name  ~/.angband/Angband/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.
