Import of new port games/netrek-COW3-bin, a multiplayer space battle type
game with a Star Trek theme.

This is the 'COW3' client, which has all the whiz-bang features that
everyone seems to want nowadays, like a nifty 256-color mode, sound,
etc.  It's probably not a wise choice if you have a slower machine;
use the BRMH client instead.

The Netrek client is now installed. You may start it by typing "netrek".
Be sure and read the Netrek web site (http://www.netrek.org/) before you
play! It contains many useful documents for the new (and not-so-new)
Netrek player, including the Netrek FAQ. Highly recommended reading!
NOTE: Since this client was compiled, the address of the Netrek metaserver
has changed. The new metaserver address is "metaserver.netrek.org">
To fix this, please insert the following into your ${HOME}/.netrekrc
file:
metaserver: metaserver.netrek.org
NOTE 2: This client, since it is still in development, has an expiration
date. The current version of the client will expire on Fri, 4/16/99.
I will be sure and update the port before this expiration date, when the
next version of the client comes out. :)
Enjoy, have fun, and may you live long and prosper...
