WORMS(6)                                                              WORMS(6)


NAME
       worms  -  animate worms on a display terminal

SYNOPSIS
       /usr/games/worms [ -field ] [ -length # ] [ -number # ] [ -trail ]

DESCRIPTION
       Brian  Horn  (cithep!bdh)  showed  me a TOPS-20 program on the DEC-2136
       machine called WORM, and suggested that I write a similar program  that
       would run under Unix.  I did, and no apologies.

       -field  makes a "field" for the worm(s) to eat; -trail causes each worm
       to leave a trail behind it.  You can figure out the rest by yourself.

BUGS
       The lower-right-hand character position will not be updated properly on
       a terminal that wraps at the right margin.

       Terminal initialization is not performed.
