+This a port of rottexpr[0] to 9front.
+This port relies on NPE[1].
+
+Building:
+; cd src && mk
+
+This port expects game files to be installed in /sys/games/lib/rott.
+The following files seemed to work for me:

+
+There are some noticable bugs in the port that need ironing out, the following is a incomplete list:
+* Image scaling in loading screens is not correct
+* Has only been tested against the full game (ie darkwar.*)
+* Some screen effects are stubbed out (like the "drunken" effect)
+* Networking is stubbed out entirely
+* A full playthrough has not been tested (sorry)
