NAME

       stax - Stax is a collection of puzzle games.

SYNOPSIS

       stax

HOW TO PLAY

       The  object  of the games is basically to get rid of the blocks as fast as possible and not let them rise to the top. To get rid of blocks,
       get a horizontal or vertical line of 3 or more of the same type of blocks in a row. Usually, getting more than 3 in a  row  will  make  the
       other players blocks rise faster, so go for big combos!

       A few keys work the same in every game:

       Escape Quit	  (prompted)

       P      Pause	  (any key except P to unpause)

       Backspace
	      Screenshot  (named stax????.pcx in current directory)

       The configuration of all other keys is described in the README file in
	      the documentation directory of Stax (/usr/share/doc/stax/README.gz).
