NAME
     pioneers-editor - Editor for the Pioneers boardgame

SYNOPSIS
     pioneers-editor [filename]

DESCRIPTION
     This manual page documents briefly the pioneers-editor command.

     Pioneers  is  an  implementation of the popular, award-winning "Settlers of
     Catan"  board  game  for  the  GNOME  desktop  environment.   It	uses   a
     client/server  model  for	networked play of between two and eight players.
     You will need to connect to a machine running either pioneers-server-gtk or
     pioneers-server-console to play.  An AI client, pioneersai, is also  avail-
     able.

     Pioneers-editor  can  be used to create new board layouts.  Clicking on the
     plus and minus signs on the side of the board will  increase  and	decrease
     the  board size respectively.  Left clicking on a tile allows one to select
     the terrain type; Middle or right clicking allows one to set the chit  num-
     ber  or  port  type  and  orientation.   The chit number can also be set by
     pressing the number key(s) while the pointer is hovering over the tile.

     In the settings tab, several game settings can be adjusted.

PLAYING
     Games created with pioneers-editor can be played  with  pioneers-server-gtk
     and  pioneers-server-console,  if they are installed in the global game di-
     rectory.  Alternatively, they can be played  with	pioneers-server-console,
     by using the --file option.

OPTIONS
     Pioneers-editor  accepts  the standard GTK+/GNOME commandline options.  See
     pioneers-editor --help for details.

FILES
     /usr/share/games/pioneers/*.game
	    Global game files.	Games which are installed here can  be	selected
	    by title, and played from pioneers-server-gtk.
