DESCRIPTION

       Wolf4SDL  is  an  open-source  port  of  id Software's classic first-person shooter Wolfenstein 3D to the
       cross-plattform multimedia library Simple DirectMedia Layer (SDL) (http://www.libsdl.org). It is meant to
       keep the original feel while taking advantage of some improvements.

       The  wolf4sdl-wl6,  wolf4sdl-wl6a,  wolf4sdl-wl1, wolf4sdl-sod and wolf4sdl-sdm binaries start the Wolf3d
       Full v1.4 GT/ID/Activision, Wolf3d Full v1.4 Apogee (with ReadThis),  Wolf3d  Shareware  v1.4,  Spear  of
       Destiny  Full  and  Mission Disks and Spear of Destiny Demo games, respectively. The wolf4sdl binary is a
       symbolic link to one of these and is handled via Debian's update-alternatives mechanism.
