Package: Prometheus PBEM Game by Mathias Kettner
System name: prometheus
Type: non-GNU

Description:
This project is about a play by mail/email game called \'Prometheus. 
The game is fully functional and has be run commercially in Germany 
for several years (being closed source to that time). 

Later on the game program as well as the rule book have been translated into 
English, so Prometheus can be played in German and English (though not in the 
same game).

Since the chances of earning money with a PBEM game is almost zero, I decided 
to make the programm open source.

The game is written in C++. It produces HTML or PostScript output
to be sent either via email or plain mail. The game is a \"build your 
civilization from stone age to modern timesand try to rule the world\" game.

The source code is at:

Other Software Required:
Any system running a GNU G++ Compiler with Standard Templates Library (STL) and 
ncurses library.

Tested only on SuSE Linux 5.3 to 8.1. Since the software has just 
a simple text-based UI, it has no special requirements.

It once even ran under MS-DOS and on Windows 98!
