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  players.   You  will need to connect to a machine running either
       pioneers-server-gtk or pioneers-server-console to play.  An AI client, pioneersai, 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 decrease  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-
