+Aleph One is the open source version of Bungie's Marathon game.
+
+Marathon is a three-part, first-person shooter series that was published
+by Bungie Software. The complete Marathon trilogy consists of Marathon,
+Marathon 2: Durandal, and Marathon Infinity. The hallmark of the series
+is the detailed story-line that unfolds throughout the game.
+
+After Bungie released the source code to the Mac OS version of Marathon,
+the Aleph One project was created to enhance the software and port it to
+other operating systems. The project's home page and news site is found
+at http://source.bungie.org. As AlephOne has matured, so have the user-
+contributed scenarios, some which far surpass the original Marathon game
+scenarios themselves.
+
+Aleph One is OpenGL-accelerated, but performs well without OpenGL if you
+do not have a graphics card with the appropriate functionality (you need
+to use the -g/--nogl option).
