puzzle - 15-puzzle game for X
puzzle [-option...]
This option specifies the display to use; see X(1X). This
option specifies the size and position of the puzzle window;
see X(1X). This option specifies the size of the
puzzle in squares. This option specifies the speed in
tiles per second for moving tiles around. 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. This option indicates that the program
should create its own colormap for the picture
option.
Executing puzzle with no arguments plays a 4x4 15-puzzle.
The control bar has two boxes in it. Clicking in the left
box scrambles the puzzle. Clicking in the right box
solves the puzzle. Clicking the middle button anywhere
else in the control bar causes puzzle to exit. Clicking in
the tiled region moves the empty spot to that location if
the region you click in is in the same row or column as
the empty slot.
The picture option should work on a wider variety of
screens.
