NAME

       xbill - save your computers from Wingdows [TM] virus

SYNOPSIS

       xbill [-l level] [--gui gui] [--sizesize] [-v] [-h]

DESCRIPTION

       Ever  get  the  feeling that nothing is going right?  You're a sysadmin, and someone's trying to destroy your computers.  The little people
       running around the screen are trying to infect your computers with Wingdows [TM], a virus cleverly designed to resemble a popular operating
       system.	 Your  objective  is  to click the mouse on them, ending their potential threat.  If one of the people reaches a computer, it will
       attempt to replace your operating system with the virus it carries. It will then attempt to run off the screen with  your  vital  software.
       The  game  ends when only 1 (or 0) of your computers are being productive.  Additionally, some computers are connected with network cables.
       When one computer on a network becomes infected, a spark will be sent down the cable, and will infect the computer on the other end when it
       reaches there.

       Clicking  the  button on one of the little people will cause it to cry out in pain and melt (id software eat your heart out!), dropping the
       stolen os if it is carrying one.  If a computer is running Wingdows or is temporarily off, the os can be dragged back to the  computer  (or
       another computer compatible with that os).  To extinguish a spark, drag the bucket of water from the upper left corner onto it.

       The status bar at the bottom tells the following:
	       Number of Bills on/off the screen
	       Number of Computers running their OS/off/Wingdows
	       Level
	       Score

OPTIONS

       -l n   Start at level n.

       --gui gui
	      Use  a  specific	front  end.  The possible values are gtk, motif, and athena.  Note that some of these may not be compiled into the
	      binary.

       --size size
	      Play on a field of size x size, instead of the normal 400x400.  size must be larger than 400.

       -v     Print version number and exit.

       -h     Print help and exit.

       When using the GTK gui, all standard GTK options are supported.	When using the Athena or Motif GUI, all standard X Intrinsics options  are
       supported.
