Welcome to Zangband!

This is the source code release of Zangband 2.0.6b, a bug-fix release
of the recent 2.0.6.
Any piece of my code may be used in any freeware/pd version of Angband
(meaning all versions where you do not ask for money).

This version incorporates Robert Ruehlmann's main-ibm.c which enables 
SVGA graphics and 'windows' for Dos. A bitmap (of 8x8 tiles) is also
included, which can be used to produce 'graphical' versions on other
platforms which support graphics (Amiga, Mac etc.). The file graf-ibm.prf
should perhaps also be used so the correct icons will be displayed.
