! 21: <h2>DESCRIPTION</h2>
! 22: <blockquote>
! 23:
! 24: <p align="justify"><u>Rogue</u> is a computer fantasy game with a new twist.
! 25: It is crt oriented and the object of the game is to survive the attacks of various
! 26: monsters and get a lot of gold, rather than the puzzle solving orientation
! 27: of most computer fantasy games.</p>
! 28:
! 29: <p align="justify">To get started you really only need to know two commands.
! 30: The command ? will give you a list of the available commands and the command /
! 31: will identify the things you see on the screen.</p>
! 32:
! 33: <p align="justify">To win the game (as opposed to merely playing to beat
! 34: other people's high scores) you must locate the Amulet of Yendor which is
! 35: somewhere below the 20th level of the dungeon and get it out. Nobody has
! 36: achieved this yet and if somebody does, they will probably go down in history
! 37: as a hero among heros.</p>
! 38:
! 39: <p align="justify">When the game ends, either by your death, when you quit,
! 40: or if you (by some miracle) manage to win, <u>rogue</u> will give you a list of the
! 41: top-ten scorers. The scoring is based entirely upon how much gold you get.
! 42: There is a 10% penalty for getting yourself killed.</p>
! 43:
! 44: <p align="justify">For more detailed directions, read the document <u>A Guide
! 45: to the Dungeons of Doom</u>.</p>

! 48:
! 49: <h2>OPTIONS</h2>
! 50: <blockquote>
! 51:
! 52: <p align="justify">If a <i>save_file</i> argument is given, <u>rogue</u> will attempt
! 53: to load a previously saved game from that file.</p>
! 54: <p align="justify">With the <b>-n</b> option, <u>rogue</u> will load a game with the
! 55: name <i>playername</i> from a location defined at compile time. If no such
! 56: game exists, it will start one.</p>
! 57: <p align="justify">The <b>-s</b> option prints the top-ten scores list and exits.</p>
