DESCRIPTION

15       Freeciv is a free turn-based multiplayer strategy game, in  which  each
16       player  becomes  the  leader  of a civilization, fighting to obtain the
17       ultimate goal: To become the greatest civilization.
18
19       Players of Civilization II® by Microprose® should feel at  home,  since
20       one aim of Freeciv is to have compatible rules.
21
22       Freeciv  is  maintained by an international team of coders and enthusi‐
23       asts, and is easily one of the most fun and addictive network games out
24       there!
25
26       This  is  the  custom  content  installer  program  - see also freeciv-
27       server(6) freeciv-client(6) .
28
29       This program allows users to select and download add-on content  ("mod‐
30       packs") for Freeciv from the Internet, either from a list maintained by
31       the Freeciv team, or by using a URL obtained by other means.  It  takes
32       care of installing the files in the correct place under the user's home
33       directory for this version of Freeciv; it does not install anything for
34       system-wide use.
35
36       This  manual  page  only  lists the command line arguments. For details
37       regarding the options when using freeciv-modpack see the  documentation
38       at  the  Freeciv website ⟨http://www.freeciv.org/⟩ as well as the docu‐
39       mentation which is part of the Freeciv distribution.
