	GENERIC TETRIS
	==============	Yet Another Tetris Game on X, V3.2.1


WHY ANOTHER?

    Because "different is good"...

    Because this one is simple, easy to build, and portable --
    actually the blocks are round-cornered and bigger, more
    comfortable for your eyes.  It only uses Xlib -- no "toolkit" kind
    of thing.  The most updated source could be found on ftp.x.org
    under /contrib.


HOW TO BUILD?

    Edit the Imakefile (or Makefile.std, see below) for appropriate
    settings of variable SCOREFILE and RANDOM, then do:
	xmkmf
	make

    Note: if you don't have 'xmkmf' or the "Makefile" it generates
    doesn't work well, try:
	make -f Makefile.std

    "Tetris" is the game.  It only lists the top 15 players at the
    end, each player may has at most three scores.  With the option
    "-s", "tetris" will list all the scores.


ANYTHING SPECIAL IN PLAYING?

    Use 'j' to move left; 'l' to move right; 'k' to rotate. 
    Left-handed people may want to use 's', 'd', 'f' respectively. 
    Use the space bar to drop a block quickly.  Do you want to try the
    arrow keys?

    Use CTRL-L key combination to redraw -- in case the program messes
    somthing up.

    The '+' key will speed up the speed.  To avoid cheating there is
    no way to slow down at run-time.  The 'b' key can be used to
    toggle "beep" and 'n' toggles "show next".

    If you press 'p', the game will be paused, and the window will be
    iconified -- just in case your boss suddenly appears at your door. 
    ;o) When the tetris window loses its focus, it also goes to
    "paused" mode except it doesn't iconify itself.

    Refer to the man page for detailed command line options.
