+ XNibbles is a game for X11R6. It is conceptually based on
+nibbles, which was a program that came with qbasic for MS-DOS.
+
+ XNibbles is actually written in C++, and shares no code
+with qbasic nibbles. For those of you who have played the
+game before, you can attest to the fact that it is extremely
+fun and addictive.
+
+ The goal of the game is to work your way through the
+levels, which become harder and harder. You do this by running
+your snake over the blue diamonds. For every 10 diamonds you
+acquire, you move up one level. Along the way, a number of
+other diamonds will be encountered. Gold doubles your length,
+and red halves your length, both giving you points. Green
+gives you an extra life. You die if you run into yourself or a
+wall. Question marks serve as warps.
+
+ The authors of XNibbles are Ian Peters (ipeters@acm.org),
+and Sean MacIsaac (sjm@acm.org).
+ XNibbles is Copyleft'd under the GNU Public License. See
+the file COPYING for information.
