|
||
more elaborate, distributed in C source over <a href="../U/Usenet.html"><i class="glossterm">Usenet</i></a>
|
||
and very popular at Unix sites and on PC-class machines (nethack is
|
||
probably the most widely distributed of the freeware dungeon games). The
|
||
earliest versions, written by Jay Fenlason and later considerably enhanced
|
||
by Andries Brouwer, were simply called ‘hack’. The name
|
||
changed when maintenance was taken over by a group of hackers originally
|
||
organized by Mike Stephenson. There is now an official site at <a href="http://www.nethack.org/" target="_top">http://www.nethack.org/</a>. See also
