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 play-
       ers.  You will need to connect to a machine  running  either  pioneers-
       server-gtk  or pioneers-server-console to play.	An AI client, pioneer-
       sai, is also available.

       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 de-
       crease 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	number 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 directory.	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  se-
	      lected by	title, and played from pioneers-server-gtk.
