- mmine

This is my favorite project, just in terms of sheer groove points.

It creates a minesweeper game, and then tries to solve it. Without cheating, in fact.
And it's better than you. I think it watches me while I sleep. Someone protect me.

This is very old code, it was my first project written in C. There's no configure script of any kind. You may need to edit the Makefile to change options. Set DOS = yes if you're under DJGPP, and set NO_VGA = yes to disable VGA (svgalib under linux, direct VGA under DOS). There's a script in this project called mmine-login that can be used in conjuction with a telnet daemon to serve minesweeper to the world. I added this line to my inetd.conf:

mmine stream tcp nowait telnetd.telnetd /usr/sbin/in.telnetd in.telnetd -L /usr/local/bin/mmine-login

Try it:
telnet adultscubatoys.com 55555
(requires ANSI compatible terminal emulation)

(Vague) Documentation:
(tiny) manual page
help (output of mmine -h)

Release tarballs:
mmine 1.0.0
