+Please refer to /usr/pkg/share/doc/atari (or equivalent on your
+system) for the distribution documents. A man page has also been
+installed. The system wide configuration file can be found at
+/usr/pkg/lib/atari/atari800.cfg (or similar) which you will probably
+want to copy to your home directory, at some stage, to personalise the
+settings.
+
+If you're at all serious about your emulator then you SHOULD check out
+these URL's in the order they're written:
+
+ http://www.signus.demon.co.uk/david/
+ http://zippy.sonoma.edu/~kendrick/nbs/new_and_emu.html
+ ftp://ftp.hackerz.com/hackerz/atari/web/index.html
+ comp.sys.atari.8bit
+
+This should get you started and provide you with numerous links to
+other web sites.
+
+The ROM's for the Atari computers are, unfortunately, copyright. This
+port will attempt to down-load another freeware Atari emulator for DOS
+called PC Xformer 2.5 which contains copies of these ROM files. If you
+would like to take a further look at XF2.5 you should find it in your
+distfiles directory (if it successfully down-loaded :->). For more info
+on this emulator check out "http://www.halcyon.com/brasoft/".
