Greetings!

Silmar is a Java application and requires the Java Runtime Environment (JRE) version 1.4 (or later) to be installed on your Windows or Linux machine.  You can download the latest version of the JRE (also known as the Java virtual machine, or VM) from http://java.com.

To start the program, simply double-click the silmar.jar file.  Alternatively, at the command line type "java -jar silmar.jar" from the folder into which you unzipped the download file.

The Silmar web site, where you can register your copy of this game, as well as send e-mail to the author, is at http://dunjax.com/silmar.

Have fun!
