NAME
moon-buggy - drive some car across the moon SYNOPSIS
moon-buggy [-hnsV] [--help] [--no-title] [--show-scores] [--version] DESCRIPTION
Moon-buggy is a simple character graphics game, where you drive some kind of car across the moon's surface. Unfortunately there are dan- gerous craters there. Fortunately your car can jump over them! OPTIONS
The program understands the following command line options. -h, --help shows a short usage message. -m, --mesg disable write access to your terminal by other users, so your boss can't disturb your game play with the help of "write" or "fin- ger". -n, --no-title skips the title screen. -s, --show-scores shows the current highscore list and exits. -V, --version prints the program's version to standard output and exits. KEYS
The moon-buggy is controlled by a couple of keys, which are described near the bottom of the screen. Most important are the following keys. SPC, j makes your car jump. The length of a jump is fixed and you can only start a new jump, while the wheels have contact to the ground. a, l fires the mining laser. The laser is used to remove stones, which may block your way. q quits the game prematurely. But you still keep your score and may enter the highscore list. FILES
The following files on your system are related to moon-buggy. /usr/games/moon-buggy the moon-buggy executable. /var/games/moon-buggy/mbscore the global score file $HOME/.mbscore the local score file. This is used, if moon-buggy has no write access to the global score file. SEE ALSO

NAME
AnyEvent::Impl::Tk - AnyEvent adaptor for Tk SYNOPSIS
use AnyEvent; use Tk; # this module gets loaded automatically as required DESCRIPTION
This module provides transparent support for AnyEvent. You don't have to do anything to make Tk work with AnyEvent except by loading Tk before creating the first AnyEvent watcher. Tk is buggy. Tk is extremely buggy. Tk is so unbelievably buggy that for each bug reported and fixed, you get one new bug followed by reintroduction of the old bug in a later revision. It is also basically unmaintained: the maintainers are not even interested in improving the situation - reporting bugs is considered rude, and fixing bugs is considered changing holy code, so it's apparently better to leave it broken. I regularly run out of words to describe how bad it really is. To work around some of the many, many bugs in Tk that don't get fixed, this adaptor dup()'s all filehandles that get passed into its I/O watchers, so if you register a read and a write watcher for one fh, AnyEvent will create two additional file descriptors (and handles). This creates a high overhead and is slow, but seems to work around most known bugs in Tk::fileevent on 32 bit architectures (Tk seems to be terminally broken on 64 bit, do not expect more than 10 or so watchers to work on 64 bit machines). Do not expect these workarounds to avoid segfaults and crashes inside Tk. Note also that Tk event ids wrap around after 2**32 or so events, which on my machine can happen within less than 12 hours, after which Tk will stomp on random other events and kill them. So don't run Tk programs for more than an hour or so. To be able to access the Tk event loop, this module creates a main window and withdraws it immediately. This might cause flickering on some platforms, but Tk perversely requires a window to be able to wait for file handle readyness notifications. This window is always created (in this version of AnyEvent) and can be accessed as $AnyEvent::Impl::Tk::mw. SEE ALSO
