       bambam  is  a  keyboard and mouse game for babies written in Python.  Pressing letter keys prints them in
       random locations and colours.  Pressing  any  other  key  draws  little  pictures  in  random  locations.
       Dragging  the  mouse while the mouse button is pressed draws in randomly changing colours.  The screen is
       cleared at random.

NOTES

       To quit, type quit in the game.

       To turn the sound off and on, type mute and unmute, respectively, in the game.

       bambam loads images (GIF, JPEG, PNG and TIFF files) and sounds (WAV and OGG  files)  from  the  following
       directories:

       •      the data directory distributed with the game,

       •      $XDG_DATA_HOME (usually ~/.local/share/bambam/data)

       When  scanning  directories  for  files,  bambam does follow symbolic links and descend directories. This
       makes is easy to have bambam use files located elsewhere.

       Be aware that bambam does not block virtual terminal  switching  (e.g.   CTRL+ALT+F1).  See  the  example
       50-dont-vt-switch.conf file if you would like to block that.
