command.

.\" TeX users may be more comfortable with the \fB<whatever>\fP and
.\" \fI<whatever>\fP escape sequences to invode bold face and italics, 
.\" respectively.
\fBinfond\fP is the server for the infon game.
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.

The server will be accessible on port 1234 for telnet clients as well as 
for graphical clients, such as
.BR infon (6).

It can be configured by editing the file
.BR /etc/infond.lua .

.SH OPTIONS
.TP
.B \-d
Runs the program daemonized. Requires root.
