GETTING STARTED

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