My NetHack 5.0.0 Classic Macintosh port is almost ready. It can now also use tile mode and the optimized tile renderer from the Amiga version runs nicely even on lower end Macs (you still need a Mac with at least 8 MB of memory).

Just built and installed NetHack 5.0.0 and holy cats, there's a tutorial now!

(Fired it up in an ~80x25 xterm for that classic hack feel, though my default xterm font is a bit too modern)

DAMMIT. There is a new version of Nethack out and there isn't an OpenSUSE nethack package OR a flatpack! Nothing under nethack at all in Discover!
....Do I have to compile Nethack-Qt from source myself? @.@
At least it doesn't update very often, so I won't have to do it very often. (Usually less then once update a year)
