Deminuer in Korn Shell??? Well.....
I know this is an Off Topic forum, but this didn't seem quite On topic so I put it here.....

You probably all remember some "joker" we had on the boards a few months back asking for Minesweeper or some other game written in the Korn shell.

Well, I was bored tonight so I decided to implement hangman in bash, complete with graphics , albeit very crudely drawn in ASCII......

If any of you want it, download the tarball .
Bear in mind that you'll need bash, and an "echo" command that allows for the -n and -e options. If you want to add more words to the database, just edit word_list and append them to the bottom of the list (don't have ANY blank lines though).

I knew it was possible to write a fairly decent shell game, and here it is. I'll get round to hosting it "properly" on my site at some point.

Cheers all
Peace
ZB

tm::materialized::jtm

TM::Materialized::JTM(3pm)				User Contributed Perl Documentation				TM::Materialized::JTM(3pm)

NAME

       TM::Materialized::JTM - Topic Maps, trait for JSON Topic Map instances.

SYNOPSIS

	 use TM::Materialized::JTM;
	 my $tm=TM::Materialized::JTM(file=>"somefile.jtm");
	 $tm->sync_in;
	 ...
	 # map was modified, now save the changes
	 $tm->sync_out;

DESCRIPTION

       This package provides map parsing and creating functionality for JTM (JSON Topic Map) instances.  The JSON Topic Map format is defined
       here: <http://www.cerny-online.com/jtm/1.0/>.

INTERFACE

   Methods
       Constructor
	   $tm = TM::Materialized::JTM->new (...);

	   The constructor expects a hash as described in TM::Materialized::Stream, with one additional key/value parameter:

	   o   format (choices: "json", "yaml")

	       This option controls whether the JTM data is treated as being in JSON format or in YAML (which is a superset of JSON). This applies
	       to both reading and writing of map data.

	       The default value is "json".

       format
	   $tm->format('json');

	   $curformat=$tm->format;

	   This method gets or sets the format parameter for future operations. Possible choices: "json", "yaml".
