Batalla Naval  			       -------------							                                      idea:		  Sebastian Cativa Tolosa and Ricardo Quesada              server, XView client, GTK client, ncurses client:                            by Ricardo Quesada                            (rquesada@dc.uba.ar)                               win16 client: 			     por Horacio Pe馻		          (horape@century.com.ar)What do I need to play the game ?---------------------------------          A color X server for the GTK client or...	  a color X server for the XView client or...	  a color console (80x24) for the ncurses client or...	  a VT100 terminal (80x24) for the ncurses client or...	  a Windows 3.1+ for the Windows Client and...	  Linux for the server and most of the clients :)What do I need to know ?------------------------        The name of the host where the bnserver is running and the port number.        Default is: port=1995 host=localhostCommand line arguments:-----------------------        bnclient [-p port_number] [-s host_name] [-u username] [-m | -c]	options:	    -p        the port that the server is listening to	              default is 1995	    -s        the name of the host where the bnserver ir running	              default is localhost            -u        username                      default is your login name	    -c        force color ( only in the ncurses client )	    -m        force black & white ( only in the ncurses client )	            eg:  bnclient -p 2001 -s era.balug.org.ar -u riqclient GTK ( gbnclient )--------------------------       It is very simple to use this program. You need a mouse and nothing       more.       1) If not connected try to establish a connection with the bnserver.          Use 'Config'.       2) Fill the left window with your ships.       3) Press the 'Send Board' button.       4) Wait another player (1 or more).       5) Press 'Start' (to start the game).       6) The enemies are in the right notebook ( fire there ).       7) Wait your turn and hit in the right window.client XView ( xbnclient )--------------------------       It is very simple to use this program. You need a mouse and nothing       more.       1) If not connected try to establish a connection with the bnserver.          Use 'Config'.       2) Fill the left window with your ships.       3) Press the 'Send Board' button.       4) Wait another player (1 or more).       5) Press 'Start' (to start the game).       6) Use the 'Players' with the right button of the mouse to see the          enemys boards.       7) Wait your turn and hit in the right window.       Do not run this program under rxvt (vt100 emulation under X). Use,       instead, xterm if you need a shell.Otherwise it will cause a        segmentation fault. Why ? I dont know.       You can hide your board in the 'config'. (See below)client ncurses ( nbnclient ):-----------------------------       It isnt as easy as xbnclient, because mouse is not supported. But you       will find it very intuitive.       1) If you are not connected try to establish a connection with the           bnserver using 'Connect'. If you have any problem press 'Config'.          Use Tab to move to the buttons, and the use the cursors to move	  between the buttons.       2) Fill the left window with your ships. Move with the cursors and          press Space or 'x' to toggle ships.       3) Press the 'Send Board' button.       4) Wait others players ( 1 or more at least ).       5) Press 'Start' (to start the game).       6) To see the enemys board use Page Down or 'n' for the next player's          board.	  Use Page up or 'p' for the previous player's board.       7) Go to the right window. Press Tab to go the buttons, then the right          cursor.       8) Wait your turn and hit in the right window with Space.              Keys that are equivalent (for VT100 terminals):        Original        for VT100          meaning:              Page up         'p'                previous player's board.       Page down       'n'                newt player's board.       Cursor left     'j'                you know       Cursor right    'l'                  "       Cursor up       'i'                  "       Cursor down     'k'                  "       Tab             't'                Move between windows.       Space           'x'                togles something on or off       Backspace       '/'                you know       More keys:       'h' or 'H'      Hides your board. This is util if you are playing                       against another player in the same room.       Do not use this program under terminal with COLUMNS<80 or LINES<24.       It will cause a segmentation fault.server ( bnserver ):--------------------       bnserver [options] [-p port_number]	options:	    -p         the port that the server will listen to	               default is 1995            -d or -x   debug mode on (a monitor is activated)        eg:  bnserver -d -p 2001	            You need a terminal with 80x24.       Do not use debug mode in background (unpredictable results).Windows client ( bnwin )------------------------       The information of this client is in the wbnclient directory.       Meanings and otras yerbas:--------------------------      xbnclient & nbnclient (color mode)   nbnclient (B&W mode)        GREEN                    ##             my ship        RED                      xx             my ship was hit        BLACK                    **             my ship was sunk        BLUE                     ..             I missed the hit (water)Quantity of ships:        4 ships of 1 block	3 ships of 2 blocks	2 ships of 3 blocks	1 ships of 4 blocks		The ships cant be in diagonal and they cant touch each other.        Buttons & meanings:        Connect or Disconnect: Try to establish a connection with bnserver	                       running in HOST listening to PORT, or 	  		       disconnect from bnserver.        Send Board or Start:   First you must fill your board with the ships.	                       Then you must press 'Send Board' to check it.			       If the board is OK, the legend of the button			       changes to Start. You must press it to start			       the games.

Send Msg:              Send message to another player. If local echo  	                       is ON, the message will be copied in your			       terminal. If you send a message to player 0,			       the message will be send to everyone(broadcast).        Config:                You can modify the: 		               host name: (default is localhost)			       port name: (default is 1995)			       user name: (default is your login name)			       And in the xbnclient you can hide your board.                               (press 'h' in the nbnclient)        About:                 It will show you the credits.	Quit:                  Quits the games.	warning:--------
