Ok I am a realitivity new fan of the game angband, and love D&D style games. I currently have the 3.3.2 version however I want the 3.5.0 version. I am so confused on how to get this to install? Can someone help me cause I have an 8 hour headach trying to understand this... Please help this is the source http://rephial.org/downloads/3.5/angband-v3.5.0.tar.gz
I honestly need a step by step if anyone is so inclined to help.
You will need to compile the game from the source code. Read the "compiling.txt" for compiling instructions.
You may first need some tools to compile stuff.
Now download tar.gz to your drive somewhere. open terminal. cd into directory where the angband file is located, then:
BUILDING ON LINUX / *NIX
========================
Native builds
-------------
Linux builds using autotools. There are several different front ends that you
can optionally build (GCU, SDL, X11, and GTK) using arguments to configure
such as --enable-sdl, --disable-gtk, etc. Each front end has different
dependencies (e.g. ncurses, SDL libraries, etc).
To build Angband to be run in-place:
./autogen.sh
./configure --with-no-install [other options as needed]
make
To build Angband to be installed in some other location:
./autogen.sh
./configure --prefix /path/to [other options as needed ]
make
make install
On some BSDs, you may need to copy install-sh into lib/ and various
subdirectories of lib/ in order to install correctly.
ok its on my desktop
so i write
cd /home/curs3/Desktop/angband-v3.5.0
this goes right
i try the ./autogen.sh and get
bash: ./autogen.sh: no such file or directory
so please try and install this and tell me the code i need cause i feel dumb.....

OK, that's an error in a different placce to where I thought it was.That's trying to compile, but there's a problem in either the code or the dependencies. Usually they'll tell you a list of all the extra stuff you may need to install to build it.
ok -- Frontends --
- Curses No; missing libraries
- X11 Yes
- SDL No; missing libraries
- Windows Disabled
- Test No
- Stats No
- SDL sound No; missing libraries
im told i need to enable curses and sdl but i guess i need the dl for them im searching now x11 was a no before and idk how i got it as a yes but im still far off from my mark and trying

From the 'Compiling Angband' page:
libsdl1.2-dev libsdl-ttf2.0-dev libsdl-mixer1.2-dev libsdl-image1.2-dev \
libgtk2.0-dev libglade2-dev
That should sort your issues.

Someone Somewhere said:
dir is a command that lists all files and folders in a directory.'dir' is not a valid bash command
under unix/linux/bsd the equivalent is 'ls'anyway the error comes because 'autogen.sh' actually does not exist. The instructions provided in the readme are incorrect and probably just copied from a previous version.

Yes TIL. !
However its existence is sort of dubious because:
in columns, sorted vertically, and special characters are represented by
backslash escape sequences.
Where ls is the traditional unix method to "list" files in a directory.
