1. Introduction
---------------

Welcome to the second beta-prerelease of TinyFugue for the Amiga!

Since now, it's only a quick-and-dirty straightforward port of the original
Unix/OS2 version, but stay tuned, there's still more to come. There are
propably still zillions of silly bugs in this version, so don't panic if
something does not work as expected :-)

This version of TinyFugue is maintained by Sven Tegethoff, aka "Radjah" on
FurryMUCK. If you want to contact me for bugreports, suggestions or for
obtaining a copy of the sourcecode according to the GNU License, then you can
reach me by email, the address is cheetah@ius.gun.de.

ATinyFugue is based on TinyFugue V3.5 alpha 9 by Ken Keys ("hawkeye@tcp.com").
TinyFugue versions 1.5.3 and earlier were written by Greg Hudson
("Explorer_Bob"). TinyFugue was intially derived from tinytalk, a unix
client written by Anton Rang ("Tarrant") and modified by Leo Plotkin
("Grod").

My current job doesn't leave me much time to work on TF, unfortunately,
so please don't be disappointed if I shpouldn't be able to immediately
react on every input, but don't worry, each bug report or suggestion
will be answered and stored for later processing...

2. Requirements
---------------

TinyFuge needs the following things to run properly:

- AmiTCP or AS255/I-Net (It will even run without either of
  them, but a MUD client with no connection to a network doesn't
  make much of a sense, does it ?)
- ixemul.library V43.0 or higher
- ixnet.library V1.0 or higher (should be included in ixemul archive)
- etc:termcap installed and envarc:term set to "amiga"
- A stack of at least 64000 bytes. (I don't trust GCC's
  automatic stack extension...)

3. Installation
---------------

Before installing TinyFugue, don't forget to install the newest version of
ixemul.library (at least Version 43 is required). You can get ixemul from
aminet, it can be found in the dev/gcc directory.

First of all, copy the "termcap" file into your s: directory,
and add the line:

assign etc: s:

to your user-startup. If you have the GNU C Compiler installed, you can
skip that part, since it's already part of the GCC distribution. The next
step is copying the complete "TinyFugue" directory onto your harddisk. Then
type

echo >envarc:term "amiga"

and reset your Amiga. That's all. Now you can start tf by changing to your
installation directory, setting the stack size with "stack 64000" and start
the main executable "tf".

4. Known Bugs
-------------

- Window Size changes are not detected yet. The Window Size will only be
  detected once at the start of the program. You can set the environment-
  Variables LINES and COLUMNS to set a fixed window size.

Due to a minor HD crash, I've lost some older bugreports :-((( Could anybody
who reported bugs please email them again to my address below ? Thanks!

6.History
---------

V0.1ß: - First release.

V0.2ß: - recompiled using GCC 2.7.0
       - Now supports both AmiTCP and AS225 through ixnet.library.
       - Should be compatible with MLink now. (not tested)
       - Keboard input delays fixed.
       - Cursor keys are now working.
       - Removed some provisorical hacks from V0.1ß, hopefully making
         things behave more stable.
       - default filenames for worlds, hilites etc. do no longer
         begin with "~/".
       - Some minor cosmetic changes.
