Sasteroids v1.2  - source distribution
=======================================


********************************INSTALLATION**********************************

	You must be 'root' to install the game.

	Please use gcc 2.5.8 or later, the associated C++ library stuff (if
you can compile and run a C++ program, you've got it), and svgalib110 or
greater.

Possible Makefile changes:
	The game consists entirely of the one executable file 'sasteroids',
which is placed in /usr/games during installation.  This can be changed by
editing BINDIR in the makefile.

	The high score list is stored in sast.scores, created and maintained
automatically by sasteroids in the /var/games directory (change this
location by editing SCOREDIR in the Makefile).  You can copy the old file
'.SastScores' to '/var/games/sast.scores' if you used version 1.0 and want
to keep your high-score list.

	By default, the game will be compiled without joystick support.
Edit the Makefile if you have the joystick kit installed (this is a separate
package available through ftp.  I used version 0.6).

Untar the distribution (of course, you've already done this ;-)
	tar zxvvof sasteroids1.2-src.tar.gz

Or if your tar doesn't have the 'z' option:
	gzip -dc sasteroids1.2-src.tar.gz | tar xvvof - 
	cd sasteroids1.2

Edit the makefile (if needed) as noted above.
To compile and install, as ROOT, type:
	make install

To play the game, run the program:
	sasteroids


See 1-PROBLEMS if the program didn't compile.
