NAME

puzzle - 15-puzzle game for X

SYNOPSIS

puzzle [-option ...]

DESCRIPTION

The puzzle(1) utility with no arguments plays a 4x4 15-puzzle. The control bar contains two boxes. Clicking the left box scrambles the puzzle. Clicking the right box solves the puzzle. Clicking the middle button anywhere else in the control bar causes puzzle to exit. Clicking the tiled region moves the empty spot to that location if the region you click is in the same row or column as the empty slot.

The options are as follows:

-display display

This option specifies the display to use; see X(5).

-geometry geometry

This option specifies the size and position of the puzzle window; see X(5).

-size WIDTHxHEIGHT

This option specifies the size of the puzzle in squares.

-speed num

This option specifies the speed in tiles per second for moving tiles around.

-picture filename

This option specifies an image file containing the picture to use on the tiles. Try mandrill.cm. This only works on 8-bit pseudo-color screens.

-colormap

This option indicates that the program should create its own color map for the picture option.
