NAME
       gnubg - play and analyse backgammon games


SYNOPSIS
       gnubg [options] [saved-game-file]


DESCRIPTION
       This manual page briefly documents gnubg, the GNU Backgammon program.
       This  manual  page  was  written  for the Debian GNU/Linux distribution
       because the original program does not have a manual page.  Instead,  it
       has  documentation  in the GNU Info format; to access this information,
       type info gnubg.


OPTIONS
       These programs follow the usual GNU  command  line  syntax,  with  long
       options  starting  with  two  dashes  (‘-’).   A  summary of options is
       included below.  For a complete description, see the Info files.
