DESCRIPTION

       xracer is a 3D arcade game in the style of the Psygnosis game WipeOut. You have to fly around  the  track
       without crashing, shooting opposing craft where necessary, and arriving in first place.

       xracer requires a supported 3D hardware accelerator card and OpenGL or a compatible library such as Brian
       Paul's Mesa.

              Display the options and exit.

       -V, --version
              Print the current version number and exit.

       -v, --verbose
              Print verbose messages to stdout about the progress of the game. This  can  be  a  useful  aid  to
              debugging.

       -s, --size WIDTHxHEIGHT
              Set the initial screen size.

       -p, --position LEFTxTOP

              This  option puts the game into full screen mode. In this mode, the game takes over the screen and
              keyboard.

       -j, --joystick DEVICE

BUGS

       The fullscreen option is currently broken on 3Dfx Voodoo Graphics and Voodoo2 accelerator cards. Set  the
       MESA_FX_GLX environment to get fullscreen on those boards.
