Known Bugs              : None
May Not Run With...     : JDoom v0.81

======================================================================

Play with Regular Doom/Doom2:
a) add the extra sprites to fruit24.wad using a program such as DeuSF,
   WinTex, NWT, etc.   For example:   deusf -as fruit24.wad
b) run the game with:  doom -file fruit24.wad
                    or doom2 -file fruit24.wad

Play with a Doom Source Port:
A much better option is to use a Doom Source Port that can import
pwads containing sprite graphics; such as: Boom, PrBoom, MBF, SMMU,
PrjDoom, Vavoom, ZDoom, Legacy, Edge, etc.  Patching is not required,
just use the wad as-is.  For example:   boom -file fruit24

fruit23.zip also contained an additional text file readme.txt.
Most of that information related to the Dmgraph version, so it was
omitted from this updated version.  Here's some info from readme.txt
which may be of interest though:
