I have downloaded the five add-on games.
I have no idea how to play xrunner and xdigger and the manuals seem to 
assume you are familiar with loderunner and some digger game.  Steven, 
could you include a URL for more detailed instructions for these games?

These and lincity have some keyboard control, though lincity apparently 
cannot be played without a mouse.  Nor can freecell.

It would be more consistent to name the package xlincity.tgz, especially 
since the program is named xlincity and that is what I eventually typed to 
start it.

It is hard to remember what was in the instructions when I did pkg.

Lincity mentioned something about typing F1 for help (Win32).  This 
implies there is a Windows version of lincity!

I typed matanza on this computer and was told to connect to port 7993.
I am already set up for ethernet to a BL2 computer, on which I typed


telnet 192.168.1.2  (number of the BL3 computer with matanza)

On the BL2 computer I see a lot of white box characters and punctuation 
marks and things moving up the screen.  Presumably these are asteroids.
Or maybe flames.  M A T A N Z A in ASCII art.

Now a Welcome to Matanza....  scrolling across.

This one does not need X or mouse.

Another 4 gallons of stomped grapes awaits us. More games later....
