Instructions for Linux.
=======================

Store xvan and escape.dat in the same folder.

To start the game:
  Open a terminal window
  cd to the directory with the files.
  type "./xvan -i escape.dat" (without the quotes)
  Or
  type "./xvan"
  Xvan will prompt for the story name, which is escape.dat.

==========
In case xvan can not be run, there may be a permissions issue.
This can be fixed with the command: chmod u=rwx xvan
