Infon is a game which simulates the live of simple bugs who eat, propagate, eat each other and evolve. The players can not control the bugs directly but write their "intelligence" in the simple script language lua and upload it to the game using a plain telnet connection. The code can then be modified even while the game is running. You have to specify the hostname of the server to connect to on the command line. .SH OPTIONS .TP .B -r \fI\fR Renderer to use (sdl_gui,...) .TP .B -x \fI\fR Initial screen width .TP .B -h \fI\fR Initial screen height .TP .B -f Start in fullscreen mode .TP .B -v Display version information .TP .B -h This help .TP .B server[:port] The server (and port) to connect to.
