Package: slune Version: 1.0.13-1 Priority: minor The game slune is quite nice but lacks information on how to actually play it in the game itself. I then looked up at the manpage, but it didn't provide any information and ended up having to figure the keys by myself.
Finally, I found the information in the README file (at /usr/share/doc/slune/README) but it's actually at the end of the file itself (after a lot of technical stuff a player does not actually understand). I think it would be best if the control information was in the game's manpage itself. The attached patch does this precisely. Please include it in the Debian package, thanks Javier PS: I'm cc'ing the upstream author in case he wants to apply this patch upstream too.
