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.
