NAME

       xdemineur - X11 minesweeper game

SYNOPSIS

       xdemineur [-v] [-display displayname] [-geometry geom] [-m mines]

DESCRIPTION

       Xdemineur is a minesweeper game for the X Window System.

       The  object of this game is to find the location of the mines hidden in the minefield and to mark their location by placing a warning flag.
       You have exactly as many flags as there are mines.  The number of flags that remain to be placed is displayed in the top left corner of the
       window and a timer is displayed in the top right corner.

       The  game  is  played  using  a	three buttons mouse, as usual with the X Window System.  The left button (button 1) is used to uncover the
       square on which you click (hoping that a mine is not hidden there).  The number displayed in an uncovered square indicates how  many  mines
       are located around this square (for example, a 3 means that there are three mines within the 8 surrounding squares).  The whole game relies
       on the right use of these numbers.  The right button (button 3) is used to place a flag on a square (this indicates that there  is  a  mine
       here).	If  you click again with the right button on a square that has a flag, the flag is changed into a question mark: this is useful if
       you are trying to guess the possible location of some mine, you can use question marks to think about it.  One more click  with	the  right
       button  and the question mark disappears.  Clicking with the middle button (button 2) on an uncovered square which has all its flags placed
       around uncovers the surrounding cells which have no flags (this will save a lot of time).

       Finally, to start a new game, just click on the yellow face above the minefield.

OPTIONS

       -v      Print out version number and copyright notice then exit.

       -display displayname
	       This option specifies the name of the X server to use.  See X(1).

       -geometry geom
	       This option specifies the initial size and location of the window.  See X(1). The size is expressed in number of columns times num-
	       ber of rows. The default is 30x16. The minimum number of columns is 12.

       -m mines
	       This  option  specifies	the  number of mines in the minefield.	If there are more mines than squares in the minefield, the default
	       mine number is used.

NAME

       autool - audio play/record tool compatible with audiotool

SYNOPSYS

       audiotool [-audio servername] [-volume percent] [-display displayname] [-geom geometry]	filename

DESCRIPTION

       The autool program is a replacement for the Sun audiotool program used to send audio files to Network Audio System servers.  It can be used
       either by making a symbolic link name audiotool that points to autool and is before the OpenWindows version or by changing the  OpenWindows
       deskset bindings database with the binder(1) command.

OPTIONS

       The following options may be used with the autool program:

       -audio servername
	       This option specifies the Network Audio System server on which the files should be played.

       -volume 0-100
	       This option specifies the volume at which the data should be played as a percentage of the maximum possible volume.  The default is
	       10 percent.

       -display displayname
	       This option specifies the X Window System on which the control panel should be displayed.

       -geom geometry
	       This option specifies the position and size of the control panel.

CONFIGURING OPENWINDOWS TO USE AUTOOL

       OpenWindows users can configure deskset applications to use autool to play audio files through following steps:

       1.      Run the deskset configuration program binder.

       2.      Locate the entry in the scrolling list named audio-file click on it once with the left mouse button.

       3.      From the Props menu, select the Icon... entry with the right mouse button.

       4.      Click on the button marked (+) in the lower right corner with the left mouse button.  This will expand the window,  adding  another
	       panel to the right.

       5.      On  the line marked Application in the panel on the right, change ``audiotool'' to ``autool'' (you will need to specify a full path
	       name if you have not installed autool in a directory in your path).  The initial volume (which is  a  percentage  relative  to  the
	       recorded level; the default is 10) can be increased by inserting the ``-v percent'' option between ``autool'' and ``$FILE''.

       6.      Press the Apply button in the left panel.

       7.      Back in the main binder window, press the Save button in the upper left corner.

       8.      Restart any deskset applications such as filemgr to have the updated values take effect.

       Double clicking in filemgr on file names that end in .snd will now cause autool to invoked.

ENVIRONMENT

       The following environment variables are used by autool:

       AUDIOSERVER
	       This variable specifies the default audio server to contact if -audio is not specified on the command line.

       DISPLAY If AUDIOSERVER is not set, this variable is examined to find the name of the corresponding X Window System display.
