                        Playing LuxMan
===================================================================

(a) Setting the frame rate:
---------------------------

Probably the most important command line option is the `-r'
switch. This is used to set the frame rate of the game.

Either because Linux is not a real-time OS, or because I'm
not a very good programmer, you'll probably need to tinker
with the frame rate to find an optimal one for your machine.

On a 486/50 I use:

	luxman -r 35

On a 386/25 I use:

	luxman -r 28

Tip: Once you find a good frame rate for your machine (say, 27),
     add a line to your .cshrc file:

	alias lux 'luxman -r 27'

     That way you can just type `lux' to run the game instead
     of typing the whole command line every time.

     (Alternatively, you can hardcode the frame rate into the
      game by editing the variable `gb_frames_per_second' in
      the file /lux/src/globals.cc and recompiling.)

(b) Playing
-----------

Keys used during the game:

	arrow keys  	-  Movement
	p		-  Pause game and invoke shell (so that
			   you can switch consoles).
	ENTER		-  Used to select menu items and also
			   to clear the highscore screen.


(c) Sound
---------

There are two command line options to control sound playback:

	-8	Playback samples at 8kHz. The default is 11kHz.

	-n	Do not use sound at all.
