During the game you click with the mouse onto the column where you want to put your stone. Another possibility is a lower case letter in the range 'a' to 'm' (maximally) where 'a' is the left column. If you want to change the level of difficulty, you must use the keyboard. Simply type the number of the desired level. These levels correspond to the search depth of the game program. The meaning of the command line options and buttons is given below.
While the game program computes a move, everything besides "Change" and "Quit" is blocked.
-display " displayname" The X11 screen you want to use.
-geometry " geometry" The desired geometry of the game window.
-fn " fontpattern" A pattern describing the fonts which are used for the buttons and messages. Xvier chooses the biggest font that fits into the window. Therefore the pattern should describe different sizes of one font. The default is *-Helvetica-Medium-R-Normal-*.
