init s is your run level and defines what services are running (which for single user mode is not very many).

if you run the following command you can see what milstones are online.

Code:
#svcs "svc:/milestone/*"
STATE          STIME    FMRI
disabled       Aug_18   svc:/milestone/patching:default
online         Aug_18   svc:/milestone/name-services:default
online         Aug_18   svc:/milestone/devices:default
online         Aug_18   svc:/milestone/network:default
online         Aug_18   svc:/milestone/single-user:default
online         Aug_18   svc:/milestone/sysconfig:default
online         Aug_18   svc:/milestone/multi-user:default
online         Aug_18   svc:/milestone/multi-user-server:default

each milestone is marked as online when the pre-requisite services are running, so if you ran init s you should see single usermode online.

Multi user mode would be disbaled because the services required for this would be stopped.

a run level defines what services are stopped/started, a milestone marks whether the required services have been started i.e. has the milestone for that group been reached.

NAME
phear - enter the cavez of phear SYNOPSIS
phear [-e <level filename>] | [level name] OPTIONS
This program has several arguments: -e Start editor instead of game on a specific level. level name Name of the level to play, f.ex 01 level filename Filename of the level to edit. f.ex /usr/share/phear/data/levels/01 DESCRIPTION
This is a boulder dash type of game, for terminals. You walk around in a ASCII underground cave system, where you need to keep clear of boulders falling down while you are digging through the dirt searching for diamonds. To play you have to know these keys: right - move right left - move left up - move up down - move down b - place bomb t - detonate bombs q - leave game By picking up a diamond (*) you get 10 points, picking up money ($) gives you 100 points. You get one extra life for every 1000 points you score. Move around with the arrow keys or the 2-4-8-6 keys. Press 'k' to commit suicide if you should get stuck. Got the bombs (%)? Great! Press 'b' to place them, and 't' to detonate them all at once. Note that the bombs you place will act just like stones, affected by gravity, rolling, and so on.. Watch out for monsters (M) -- if they catch you, you will die. To fight back, drop stones on them or blow them up using your bombs. Pressing 's' will enable/disable sound, 'w' will highlight your current position. EDITOR
The editor has its own keys you need to know: 0-9 - Keys 0-9 places objects s - Saves the map l - Enables lock-mode (lets you draw continuously using the arrow-keys) q - Quits the editor AUTHOR
