NAME

       netris-sample-robot - sample robot for netris

SYNOPSIS

       netris-sample-robot [-l]

DESCRIPTION

       The  netris-sample-robot  is a sample implementation of the robot protocol. It plays quite
       well but isn't too hard to beat. The robot should be started from netris with  the  option
       -r to connect or wait for another player to join. You can also let two robots play against
       each other in that way, if you like.

OPTIONS

       -l     Writes some log information into the file log in the current working directory.  If
              it can't it bails out.

EXAMPLES

       To  start  the  netris-sample-robot  waiting  for  another connection with logfile use the
       following line:
              netris -w -r 'netris-sample-robot -l'

       You then just have to start netris somewhere else which connects to that robot.
