Welcome to Greed v2.0c!.
To install Greed, simply edit the Makefile to configure your system type, and
run "make install".  It should compile the program and install it correctly.
Note: If you are a SYSV site running Berkeley curses, you will need to delete
the macro defination of crmode, line 17 of greed.c.
It does run set-uid, but there is no danger of security problems.

I do not take credit for inventing the game, I once saw it on an IBM,
and wrote it for Unix in C.

If anyone has a comment or problem, please to mail to mday@ohs.uucp.

Program note for v2.0:  For portability, I wrote my own lockfile routine.
The LOCKPATH macro defined at the beginning of greed.c should be defined
to a path where normal users can't write, like /usr/games/lib.  It's defined
as /tmp/Greed.lock initially.
