+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.
