NAME

       ggz-wrapper - GGZ Gaming Zone command line core client

SYNOPSIS

       ggz-wrapper [--gametype GAMENAME] [--user NAME] [--destnick NAME] [OPTION...]

DESCRIPTION

       The  GGZ  Gaming  Zone allows people to play many games online using so-called GGZ core clients which are chat clients with integrated game
       launchers.

       The ggz-wrapper tool is a small special GGZ core client for the command line. It does not support chat or  display  of  rooms,  tables  and
       players,  but  instead  is useful for fast launching of online games.  Therefore, its main purpose is to be invoked from instant messengers
       such as gaim or kopete.

       It currently supports all two-player games, as human against human or human against bot. If no options are given, ggz-wrapper will invoke a
       Tic-Tac-Toe game client on the default GGZ server, live.ggzgamingzone.org, logging in as guest user.

OPTIONS

       --gametype=GAMENAME
	      The  name  of  the game to play, e.g. TicTacToe or Chess.  This option expects a case-sensitive argument which must match one of the
	      available game modules in ggz.modules. If the game type is not supported by the specified GGZ server, the invocation will fail.

       --user=NAME
	      The name of the player who is running the client. The default is to run with an automatically generated guest user name. In order to
	      use a registered name, the option --password is implied.

       --destnick=NAME
	      The  name of the other player. If omitted or empty, the player running the client will launch the table (game host). If empty, other
	      player will be the bot.  If not empty, player will join the table which the other player already launched.

       --password=PASSWORD
	      Password to use in case of playing as a registered user. Note that on a multi-user systems, other  users	might  see  the  password,
	      which is a security risk.

       --server=SERVER
	      The server to play on. If not specified, the default server is ggz://live.ggzgamingzone.org.

       --port=PORT
	      The port to use to connect to the GGZ server. PORT is almost always 5688, so this option is rarely needed.
