   - notes
     - visit www.freeciv.org for more documenation
     - civclient tends to core-dump at a certain maximum shell environment
       size or number of environment variables. Unfortunately there seems to
       be no specific point when this limit is reached. So just try.
     - this package was compiled with Arlindo da Silva's X11R6.3 but should
       run with the other distributions of X11R6.3 and X11R6.4, too

   - package availability
     - on ftp.uni-erlangen.de
     - in /pub/pc/gnuwin32/cygwin/porters/Weiser_Michael/B19
