plomrogue
=========
-plomlompom tries to build his own roguelike. Currently, it doesn't do
-much interesting, apart from managing some ncurses windows in a bizarre
-fashion. You can move around a player and meet a number of different
-enemies. They move randomly and will only accidentally hit you. You have
-5 hitpoints to lose before death, and so has each of them. The map gets
-generated randomly, too. There is only one save file (named "savefile"),
-and it gets overwritten each new turn. To start over with a new world,
-delete it.

+randomly and will only accidentally hit you. You have 5 hitpoints to lose before
+death; they have either 1, 3 or 9. Your score grows by killing enemies, to the
+amount of hitpoints each killed enemy started with. Dead enemies become dirt,
+skeletons or "magic meat"--such objects can be collected, and "magic meat" can
+be consumed to gain hitpoints.

+Keybindings and window configuration
+------------------------------------
+
+In the default window configuration, the window appearing on the left sports a
+list of keybindings available globally and additionally via the window currently
+selected as active.
+
+Hit "w" (per default keybindings) to switch the "active" window to a view that
+allows changing its geometry. One further hit on "w" switches the window to a
+view that allows changing its window-specific keybindings. The global
+keybindings may be changed in the "Global keys" window, those of the window
+geometry configuration in the "Window geometry keys" window" and those of the
+window-specific keybindings configuration in the "Window keybinding keys"
+window; by default, these three windows are not visible, but may be turned on by
+hitting the "F5", "F6" and "F7" keys.
+
+What actions are available globally or only in specific windows can be further
+manipulated by editing the files config/keybindings_global and
+config/windows/Win_* that map keycodes to commands to the respective keybinding
+repositories. While keybindings_global contains merely a list of keycode command
+mappings, the Win_* files start with the name of the windows to be configured,
+followed by a one-character line for internal use (mapping the window to one of
+several internally available window content drawing functions), followed by two
+lines describing the window's designated height and width, and only then an
+optional list of keybindings specific to that window.
