+Using data files from Macintosh game versions
+---------------------------------------------
+All LucasArts Scumm based adventures except CMI also exist in versions for the
+Macintosh. ScummVM can use most (all?) of them, however, in some case some
+additional work is required. First off, if you are not using a Macintoh for
+this, accessing the CD/floppy data might be tricky. There are various tools on
+the net for this, though.
+
+Secondly, most of the newer games shipped only with a  single data file on the
+Macintosh. You first have to run the 'rescumm' tool from the scummvm-tools
+package to extract the data files ScummVM excpects. You invoke rescumm like
+this (where DATAFILE is the path to the single big data file):
+   rescumm DATAFILE
+
+It will extract the data into the current directory, so make sure to run it from
+a writable directory.

 Coding style:
 ------------
 For ScummVM coding, we use hugging braces, and two-space tab indents.
