        Use -video to select videomode manually.
            -nosound to disable sound.
            -h to list options (the final version has more options).

        Realtime raytracing. Nothing is faked. Don't try it on a 486!

    Notes for the DOS version.
        GUS required for sound in the compo version. The final version
        supports more soundcards. VESA 2.0 & LFB required for
        hicolor & truecolor video modes.

    Notes for the Linux-i386 version.
        It runs under svgalib. Root rights needed. Sorry, no hicolor or
        truecolor video modes. The videomode with dithering might blink
        because it's real dithering (the palette is changed in each frame).

        WARNING: the intro runs with the highest possible priority, thus
        all processes will 'freeze' until the intro finishes! If you
        don't like this behavior, use the -lowpriority option.

    Notes for the X version.
        The X version compiled for Linux-i386. Enough CPU power must be
        given or weird things might happen (intro gets out of sync, etc).
        This version is portable, so where gcc & X are available,
        this intro works.

    Developed under Linux.
