To compile and run this game, go into the directory src, edit the file "tms.h" according to the comments that are contained in, and use make.
More specifically, it needs a certain lib directory, where all of the files in "lib" are stored. /usr/local/lib/tms is reccommended. Once you have created that directory and moved all of the files to it (be sure that book8.txt is writeable by everybody -- it is more or less the high score file), set LIB_DIR in tms.h to that directory, with a trailing slash -- ie. change appropriate line to say.
#define LIB_DIR "/usr/local/lib/tms/"
(or whatever you have put for your lib directory.)
Security note: It is strongly discouraged to install TMS as a SetUID binary; the game is not designed to have special priveleges.

SlashEM is a graphical roguelike game and variant of NetHack.
From the land before 3DFX, before VGA graphics and DOOM, before the IBM PC, way back in the dark ages of Unixland, there was a game. They called it Rogue. People played it, and found it good.
From this basis, Hack was born. Soon Hack became Nethack, because it was developed by many people (and has nothing to do with hacking the internet). And people played this on many machines, from Unices to Macs to PCs, due to the amazing power of Open Source Code.
But the DevTeam, the reclusive masterminds of Nethack, are a rather quiet bunch, gracing the world with new versions as they see fit, and when they see fit. Which is usually a new version every good number of years.
And there was much gnashing of teeth.
But because of the Freely Available Source Code Phenomenon, people began making their own versions of Nethack to tide themselves between magical releases.
SLASHEM is the (continuing) saga of one such variant...
This is the homepage for Warren Cheungs modification and experiment in computer engineering based on the 3.3.1 release of Nethack, combining Tom Proudfoots SLASH and the Larry Stewart-Zerbas Wizard Patch. From these humble beginnings, a not insignificant number of further changes have been added.
