Name
       dxpuzzle - DECwindows interface to a puzzle game

Syntax
       dxpuzzle [ options ]

Description
       The  dxpuzzle  command  displays	 a window that contains a puzzle.  The
       puzzle is a video version of a number  puzzle  with  slidable  squares.
       The  goal  is  to  arrange the squares in ascending order in the fewest
       possible moves.	To move a square, click on it.

Options
       -bd color	   Specifies the color of the window's	border	(color
			   displays  only).  The default is specified by means
			   of the Session Manager's  Customize	Window	dialog
			   box.

       -bg color	   Specifies  the  color  of  the  window's background
			   (color displays only).  The default is specified by
			   means  of  the  Session  Manager's Customize Window
			   dialog box.

       -d dispname	   Specifies the display screen on which dxpuzzle dis‐
			   plays  its  window.	 If  the display option is not
			   specified, dxpuzzle uses the display screen	speci‐
			   fied	 by  your  DISPLAY  environment variable.  The
			   display  option  has	 the  format  hostname:number.
			   Using  two colons (::) instead of one (:) indicates
			   that DECnet is  to  be  used	 for  transport.   The
			   default is :0.  For more information, see

       -display dispname   This option is the same as the -d option.

       -fg color	   Specifies  the  color  of  the text (color displays
			   only).  The default is specified by	means  of  the
			   Session Manager's Customize Window dialog box.

       -fn font		   Specifies  the  font	 for  all  parts of the puzzle
			   other than the numbers.  Use the defaults  file  to
			   change the font of numbers.	The default is menu12.

       -geometry	   Specifies  the  width,  length, and location of the
			   dxpuzzle window.  If the  geometry  option  is  not
			   specified, dxpuzzle uses default values.  The geom‐
			   etry	      option	   has	     the	format
			   [widthxlength][{+-}x{+-}y].	 For  more information
			   about the screen coordinate system, see

X Defaults
       The dxpuzzle application uses the values in  the	 .Xdefaults  when  you
       logged  in and uses the appropriate resource specification to customize
       the appearance dxpuzzle window.	The format for a  resource  specifica‐
       tion in the .Xdefaults file is:

       [name*]resource:	   value

       name	 Specifies  the	 application  name  or	the  name  string that
		 restricts the resource assignment to that application or to a
		 component  of an application.	If this argument is not speci‐
		 fied, the resource assignment is globally available to all  X
		 applications.

       resource	 Specifies the resource.

       value	 Specifies the value that is to be assigned to the resource.

       Because	each toolkit-based application can consist of a combination of
       widgets (for example, push buttons and a scroll bar), you can form  the
       name  string by adding widget class and name identifiers to the string.
       For further information about adding class and name identifiers, see

       For dxpuzzle, the available class identifiers are:

       Puzzle
       WorkArea

       For dxpuzzle, the available name identifiers are:

       Puzzle*workarea	   Changes such as font and colors for the  work  area
			   only.

       game_level	   Initial number of squares in the puzzle.

       The general resources listed in apply to dxpuzzle.
