- Much depends on your distribution. For Debian and its derivatives (Ubuntu, Mint, Knoppix and many others), you need the nethack-x11 package. Then set OPTIONS=windowtype:X11 in your ~/.nethackrc.
- See also the X11 article.
- There is also a Qt interface, but Debian no longer supports it, because Debian no longer includes Qt version 3.--Ray Chason (talk) 23:53, 16 November 2014 (UTC)
