README.linux for boggle
=======================

I grabbed this game from comp.sources.games/volume4.  This game is now
merged with the NetBSD version.

If you wish to use a different dictionary, you can set
boggle_mkdict_DICTSRC in mkdict/Makefrag.


By default, this game compiles with certain Linux improvements; if you
want the original BSD behaviour, remove -DNEW_STYLE from the
boggle_boggle_DEFS in boggle/Makefrag.  Defining NEW_STYLE will
provide a more intuitive way of quitting or playing a new game after
time has run out.

NOTE: You may wish to remove -DNEW_STYLE if you plan on using the post
game word lookup feature.  Press <ESC>, type a word, and bog will
display where it is located.  If NEW_STYLE is defined, it might be
easy to accidently start typing the word with out pressing <ESC>
first.  This would start a new game, and you would never be able to
know where that word was located. :(

Thanks to Andrew Kuchling.  (See ../Credits for his email address.)
