NAME

       ggz - The GGZ Gaming Zone

DESCRIPTION

       The GGZ Gaming Zone is a standards-conforming online gaming infrastructure which provides many applications and games to people who like to
       play on the internet or in local networks.

APPLICATIONS

       There isn't a single executable named ggz, instead a multitude of programs is available to the user, and even more  which  operate  on  the
       system level or are used by developers and administrators.  Users will most likely want to connect to a GGZ server on the internet, such as
       ggz://live.ggzgamingzone.org, to play games against other people.  Core clients are used to perform this task.

GAMES

       Games are usually launched by the GGZ server, with corresponding game clients running on the user's desktop. Plenty of games are  available
       for GGZ, most of them coming from the GGZ project itself but several independent game projects do now provide GGZ support.

       While  some GGZ game clients are suited for online gaming only, others also run locally like normal games happen to do. Those will be found
       in the desktop's application menu.

FILES

       /usr/bin
	      GGZ applications, tools, and the games which provide single player mode.

       /usr/lib(d)
	      GGZ game client and server libraries.

       /usr/share/ggz(d)
	      Data files for game clients and servers.
