GTKBOARD(6)

💖 GTKBOARD 💖

okay bestie, listen up — this is gtkboard, a section 6 (Games) manual page, and it's literally the app that lets you play a variety of board games. that's it. that's the whole vibe. board games. many of them. on your screen. 🎲✨

✨ SYNOPSIS ✨

gtkboard [-qvhV] [-g game] [-G file] [-f file] [-l logfile] [-d msec]
[-p XX] [-w wheur -b bheur]

🌸 DESCRIPTION 🌸

so here's the tea, and by "tea" i mean every single flag this thing takes. no skips, no cuts, we're covering all of them because that's just how we do it 💅

• -g, --game — the name of the game. like, which board game you wanna play. pick your fighter. 👑
• -G, --plugin — the plugin file to load game from. so if you've got your game living in a plugin file, this is where you point at it. 🦋
• -f, --file — the file to load game from. loading a game from a file? yes ma'am, that's this one.
• -l, --log — the log file to record game. it keeps the receipts, fr fr. 📝
• -q, --hide-board — don't show board. sneaky mode. the board is simply not invited to the party 🙈
• -d, --delay — the delay in milliseconds. timing knob, measured in msec.
• -p, --players — human or machine players. and listen closely because this one has rules: each X must be 'h' or 'm'. h for human, m for machine. no other letters allowed, no cap. 💀
• -w, --w-heuristic — name of heuristic function for white. white's brain, basically. 🧠
• -b, --b-heuristic — name of heuristic function for black. and black's brain. balanced. as all things should be.
• -v, --verbose — be verbose. give me all the details, every last one.
• -V, --version — print version and exit. it says its version and then it's out. main character exit. 🎀
• -h, --help — print this help and exit. prints the help text and dips immediately. iconic behaviour honestly.
