it anyway.

Hey! You've chosen the HSpace 4.x space system to install in your
MUSH.  That's just great, and we hope you have many, wonderful years
together.  If you tried to install the package already, ran into 
problems, and are just now reading this .. well, the file is named
README_FIRST .. you figure it out. :p

Here what you need to do to install it:

1) Get a current copy of pennmush from ftp.pennmush.org.
   Generally HSpace works on the latest copy, but sometimes
   we're just a short bit behind.

2) Make sure you have a current version of the make and gcc
   programs.  We use make 3.78.1 and gcc 2.95.2.  You must
   have at least gcc 2.95.1 .. NO LESS.  Why?  The 2.95.1
   and higher versions are cross-compilers that allow you to
   easily link C and C++ code together.  PennMUSH is written
   in C, and HSpace is written in C++ .. do the math.

   NO, the 2.73.2 compiler that comes with Redhat will not
   suffice.  This compiler is stable, but outdated.

   You can figure out which version of make and gcc you have
   by typing 'make -v' and 'gcc -v'.
   You can get a copy of make and gcc from ftp.gnu.org.

3) Install your PennMUSH package in the standard way as
   described the by the PennMUSH README file.  Compile
   the software before installing HSpace.

4) Ok, now you're ready for HSpace.

   Copy the hspace4.0.tar file to your base pennmush/
   directory.

   Type 'tar -xf hspace4.0.tar' in the pennmush/ directory.
   This puts the HSpace source files into pennmush/src/hspace/.
   It also copies in the help files and creates a
   game/space/ directory, which contains a hspace.cnf file with
   lots of options you can change.  Check the file out when 
   you get time!

5) Apply the patch_hspace40.pat file by typing the following command
   in your pennmush/ directory:

       patch -p0 < patch_hspace40.pat

   Although the patch is simple and small, sometimes it doesn't
   work 100% properly.  To see if any problems occurred, type:

       find -name \*.rej -print

   If you see any files listed from this command and called 
   <name>.rej, then the patch may have failed.  You'll find out
   when you try to compile.

6) Type 'make' in your pennmush/ directory to recompile your
   game driver.  If all goes well, you'll just get some warnings,
   but no errors.  If you get errors, you'll probably want to
   checkout the HSpace web page and discussion board to get
   answers.

7) Go ahead and restart your game, login, and type @space.  You
   should see the following (if you're a wizard):

   HSpace v4.0
      The system is currently ACTIVE.
      Time per cycle: 0.0ms
   HSpace Database Report:
      Weapons    :   0
      Classes    :   0
      Universes  :   0
      Ships      :   0 (0)
      Celestials :   0


   That means it's working!  Checkout the help files by typing
   'help hspace'.  You can get additional guides to administration
   on the HSpace web page (http://hspace.mushland.com).

   Enjoy!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
