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 fin-
       ished 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 Stu-
       dio. Check the exult homepage (URL below) for more information.

OPTIONS
       -h, --help

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