Step 2: unpack.
These files can be unpacked with any standard lharc utility, which should be used when you have set your current directory to the location where you want to place NetHack.
Make sure you create the subdirectories by applying the /x switch, i.e.: lha e /x nh342gt.lzh.
Step 3: install.
Read the Guidebook for a general description of what NetHack is and how to play.
Edit nethack.cnf to adjust your settings preferences. The default settings use a 16 colour tiled display.
If you prefer the tty-display ensure that the line OPTIONS=windowtype=tty,rawio,BIOS is not commented with a #.
Step 4: run.
Run nethack.prg.
Refer to the file readme, the comments in nethack.cnf and the GuideBook within the lha-archive file for further instructions.
