This is the README file for XPilot @<VERSION>@. @<COPYRIGHT>@. Please see the LICENSE file for further details. You may not distribute this project without all the documentation, source code, and the LICENSE file. Installation instructions are in the INSTALL.txt file. NT and Win95 users should examine the src/common/NT/bindist subdirectory and read the README.txt which is in there. The documentation for XPilot is far from complete. The map format is only explained in doc/README.MAPS and doc/README.MAPS2, not in the server manual page, xpilots(6). The client manual page, xpilot(6), is more or less up to date. For further reading, see the manuals in the doc/man directory.
