-README file for xdémineur
-=========================
-
-Xdémineur is a minesweeper game for the X Window System.
-
-The object of this game is to find the location of the mines
-hidden in the minefield and to mark their location by placing a
-warning flag. You have exactly as many flags as there are mines.
-The number of flags that remain to be placed is displayed in the
-top left corner of the window and a timer is displayed in the top
-right corner.
-
-The game is played using a three buttons mouse, as usual with the
-X Window System. The left button (button 1) is used to uncover
-the square on which you click (hoping that a mine is not hidden
-there). The number displayed in an uncovered square indicates
-how many mines are located around this square (for example, a 3
-means that there are three mines within the 8 surrounding
-squares). The whole game relies on the right use of these
-numbers. The right button (button 3) is used to place a flag on
-a square (this indicates that there is a mine here). If you
-click again with the right button on a square that has a flag,
-the flag is changed into a question mark: this is useful if you
-are trying to guess the possible location of some mine, you can
-use question marks to think about it. One more click with the
-right button and the question mark disappears. Clicking with the
-middle button (button 2) on an uncovered square which has all its
-flags placed around uncovers the surrounding cells which have no
-flags (this will save a lot of time).
-
-Finally, to start a new game, just click on the yellow face above
-the minefield.
