+.SH SYNOPSIS

+.SH DESCRIPTION
+Wolf4SDL is an open\-source port of id Software's classic first\-person
+shooter Wolfenstein 3D to the cross\-platform multimedia library "Simple
+DirectMedia Layer (SDL)" (http://www.libsdl.org). It is meant to keep
+the original feel while taking advantage of some modern improvements.
+.PP
+Wolf4SDL is a game engine. To actually play the game, it requires the
+data files from the original game (see \fBFILES\fR, below).
+.SH OPTIONS

+borders).

+.SH ENVIRONMENT
+.TP
+\fBWOLF4PATH\fR
+Sets the directory where game data files are searched for. When this
+variable is not set, the default directory is
+\fIPREFIX\fR\fB/share/games/wolf3d\fR (\fIPREFIX\fR was set at
+compile time, and defaults to /usr/local).
+.PP
+Note that data files are always searched for in the current directory
+first, regardless of this setting.
+.SH FILES
+Per\-user config files and saved games are stored in \fB~/.wolf4sdl\fR
+.PP
+Game data files are searched for \fBfirst\fR in the current directory,
+then in \fB$WOLF4PATH\fR (see above). Each game binary uses a different
+set of data files:
+.TS
+box;
+cB cB cB
+l c r
+l c r
+l c r
+l c r
+r s r.
+Game Executable Files
+Wolf3D Shareware wolf4sdl\-wolf\-demo *.wl1
+Wolf3D Registered wolf4sdl\-wolf\-full *.wl6 or *.wl3
+Spear Demo wolf4sdl\-spear\-demo *.sdm
+Spear Full Version wolf4sdl\-spear\-full *.sod
+wolf4sdl\-spear\-full \-\-mission 1 *.sd1
+wolf4sdl\-spear\-full \-\-mission 2 *.sd2
+wolf4sdl\-spear\-full \-\-mission 3 *.sd3
+.TE
+.PP
+All filenames must be in lowercase (e.g. \fIvgahead.wl1\fR, not \fIVGAHEAD.WL1\fR).
+.PP
+The Wolf3D and Spear demo/shareware data files can be downloaded from
+.br
+\fIhttp://sourceforge.net/projects/wolfgl/files/\fR
+.br
+The files are called \fBwolfdata.zip\fR and \fBsdmdata.zip\fR.
+.PP
+The full/registered versions are available commercially. After installing
+the game (perhaps using DOSBox), the data files will be found in the game's
+install directory.
+.PP
+To play modified versions of the game ("mods"), place the mod's files in
+their own directory, cd to that directory, and run the appropriate game
+binary. The files in the current directory will be used instead of (or in
+addition to) the ones in \fB/usr/share/games/wolf3d\fR. Remember that only
+lowercase filenames will work (use "unzip -LL" when extracting). Unfortunately,
+many available mods include modified versions of the game engine, which
+are only distributed as Windows or DOS executables, with no source. These
+are generally unplayable with Wolf4SDL :(
+.SH CONTROLS
+The controls can be modified from within the game menus. The default
+controls are:
+.TS
+box;
+cB s
+lB l.
+Keyboard Controls
+Up Move Forward
+Down Move Back
+Left Turn Left (or Strafe Left, with Alt)
+Right Turn Right (or Strafe Right, with Alt)

+or \fB\-\-debugmode\fR (Spear), the standard cheat codes are
+available. Remember to press Alt\-Shift\-Backspace first, and \fBbe
+careful\fR not to accidentally hit Alt\-Ctrl\-Backspace instead (*boom*,
+there goes your X session...)
