Sopwith for Debian
------------------

I suggest you play sopwith by running 'sopwith -q'. The music really is
terrible. Really truly terrible.

Oh, and quit via Ctrl+C. Ctrl+C three times if you're in a real hurry.

Ah, it's not that bad.  You're looking for nostalgia, right?  I remember
playing this on a 19" TV wired up to a huge, 40-pound 286 Compaq "portable"
with an amber monochrome monitor.  Woo-hoo, Saturday night entertainment!  It
just wouldn't feel right without the audio. :)

System-Wide High Scores
-----------------------

Sopwith contains functionality to track system-wide high scores shared across
multiple users.  This is managed using the file /var/games/sopwith/hiscores.txt.
On Debian systems, this file is owned root:games and has permissions 0664.  If
you want to be able to take advantage of system-wide high scores, add your user
to the games group.  Otherwise, sopwith will fall back on default behavior and
track high scores only for your user.
