.SH NAME
rubiks_dikcube \- solver for 3x3x3 Rubik's cube using Kociemba's algorithm
.SH SYNOPSIS
.B rubiks_dikcube -t

.B rubiks_dikcube -p
.SH DESCRIPTION
.TP
Solves a 3x3x3 Rubik's cube using Kociemba's algorithm
.SH OPTIONS
.TP
.BI "-t"
a configuration will be entered from standard input
.TP
.BI "-p"
a pattern will be entered from standard input
.SH CONFIGURATION FORMAT
The input should give the successive faces as follows:
            B
          L U R D
            F

although different letters can be used. So first the first 9 faces
of B, followed by 3 faces of L, U, R and D all three times,
followed by the faces of F.  The program will give the translation
between the symbols actually used and the symbols used in the
solution. So you might give the faces in the order
            T
          L F R B
            D

but the program will use the translation T -> B -> D -> F -> U!
Error messages about wrong position are *after* translation!
.SH PATTERN FORMAT
A pattern can be entered in the following format, where a solved cube is
represented by
    BBB
    BBB
    BBB
 LLLUUURRRDDD
 LLLUUURRRDDD
 LLLUUURRRDDD
    FFF
    FFF
    FFF*

Whitespace and newlines can be omitted and the * is required to start the program.
