NAME
     exult - an engine for running Ultima VII

SYNOPSIS
     exult [options]

DESCRIPTION
     Exult  is	an engine built for running Ultima VII. It started its life as a
     map-browser for Ultima VII and has evolved from there, thanks to  the  open
     source-model and contributions of time and code from many people.

     You cannot use Exult without game data files. At present, the only finished
     games  are  Origin's Ultima VII: The Black Gate and Ultima VII, Part 2: The
     Serpent Isle. In any case, both Ultima VII's are some of the best	computer
     Role-Playing-Games made to date. Check your local computer dealer's bargain
     bin or an online auction site. Ultima VII can still be purchased for only a
     few dollars. Run out and buy it!

     There  is	a world editor available to create your own games: Exult Studio.
     Check the exult homepage (URL below) for more information.

     --buildmap type
	    Create a fullsize map of the current gameworld.  If type = 0,  paint
