Hi,

I ran the nethack installer in 10.1. The "nethack" command doesn't do anything. What do I do now?

I looked in /usr/games and I see doc lib and nethack. Now what?

is ls -F /usr/games/ reviels:

*nethack

then its a binary.

Either place /usr/games into your path, or type:
/usr/games/nethack

now, if ls -F /usr/games shows:
nethack/
then its a directory.
cd into it (cd nethack) and see if you can find the executable. perhaps its /usr/games/nethack/bin/nethack

Hope you figure this out.

Thanks! It wasn't in my path. /usr/games/nethack works.
