.SH NAME
|
|
|
|
worm \- play the growing worm game
|
|
|
|
.SH SYNOPSIS
|
|
|
|
.B worm
|
|
|
|
[
|
|
|
|
.I size
|
|
|
|
]
|
|
|
|
.SH DESCRIPTION
|
|
|
|
.PP
|
|
|
|
In
|
|
|
|
.I worm,
|
|
|
|
you are a little worm, your body is the "o"'s on the screen
|
|
|
|
and your head is the "@". You move with the hjkl keys (as in the game
|
|
|
|
snake). If you don't press any keys, you continue in the direction you
|
|
|
|
last moved. The upper case HJKL keys move you as if you had pressed
|
|
|
|
several (9 for HL and 5 for JK) of the corresponding lower case key
|
|
|
|
(unless you run into a digit, then it stops).
|
|
|
|
.PP
|
|
|
|
On the screen you will see a digit, if your worm eats the digit is will
|
|
|
|
grow longer, the actual amount longer depends on which digit it was
|
|
|
|
that you ate. The object of the game is to see how long you can make
|
|
|
|
the worm grow.
|
|
|
|
.PP
|
|
|
|
The game ends when the worm runs into either the sides of the screen,
|
|
|
|
or itself. The current score (how much the worm has grown) is kept in
|
|
|
|
the upper left corner of the screen.
|
|
|
|
.PP
|
|
|
|
The optional argument, if present, is the initial length of the worm.
|
|
|
|
.SH BUGS
|
|
|
|
If the initial length of the worm is set to less than one or more
|
|
|
|
than 75, various strange things happen.
