Introduction

These files were graciously made available by Jon Lane, who did the original PC port of Rogue. The files were written for a very non-standard C compiler, and a number of them were written in assembler. Support is not currently available, nor is it expected to be in the near future. Questions about these sources should be addressed to rec.games.roguelike.rogue or rec.games.roguelike.development.

Problems with the source pages

I have received several reports that some of the images listed here don't work.  Some were bad (now fixed, I think), some were not.  The reason seems to be that some browsers have trouble dealing with the images neatly.  If you can't get an image or if it's scrambled try this file list which should give you the file listing, which will let you download the images without viewing them first.

Getting the source in some other format

I have received numerous requests for the original source in ASCII. However, the program is not public domain.
If you want to port Rogue to some other platform, you will need to do lots more than just tweak the code!
