4 PUZZLES, GAMES, Collection od Puzzles under X Window   The collection includes: SLIDING BLOCK PUZZLES  xcubes:		expanded 15 puzzle ( xtriangles:	same complexity as 15 puzzleD xhexagons:	2 modes: one ridiculously easy, one harder than 15 puzzle    ROTATIONAL 3D PUZZLES ,   hold down control key to move whole puzzle;   letters that represent colors can be changed in mono-mode   6 xrubik:		a nxnxn Erno Rubik's Cube(tm) (or Magic Cube)/ 		auto-solves 2x2x2 and 3x3x3 (non-orient mode) D xpyraminx:	a nxnxn Uwe Meffert's Pyraminx(tm) (and Senior Pyraminx),M                 a tetrahedron with Period 2, Period 3, and Combined cut modes 7 		and it also has a sticky mode to simulate a Halpern's ' 		Tetrahedron or a Pyraminx Tetrahedron C xoct:		a nxnxn Uwe Meffert's Magic Octahedron (or Star Puzzler) and < 		Trajber's Octahedron with Period 3, Period 4, and Combined. 		cut modes and it also includes a sticky modeC xskewb:		a Meffert's Skewb (or Pyraminx Cube), a cube with diagonal ;                 cuts, each face is cut with a diamond shape ? xdino:		a Triangle - 4 Cube - Dinosaur, (or Triangle - 4 Cube - = 		6 Colors) a cube with different diagonal cuts, each face is < 		cut with a "X" with Period 3 corner turning, Period 2 edge, 		turning (Bosch's Cube), and Combined modesF xmball:		a variable cut Masterball(tm), variable number of latitudinalN                 and longitudinal cuts on a sphere, where the longitudinal cuts,                 permit only 180 degree turns  - COMBINATION ROTATIONAL AND SLIDING 3D PUZZLES *   hold down shift key to move whole puzzle;   letters that represent colors can be changed in mono-mode , xmlink:		a nxm Erno Rubik's Missing Link(tm)   Future directions:K   Sorry about the lack of auto-solvers, but I would rather write the puzzle      than the tedious solution.<   Currently the saved files are cryptic (not intentionally).M   Also xmlink and xmball need better algorithms for drawing sectors than just 2     a series of arcs. If you know of any, tell me.  L   The rest of the platonic solids (the dodecahedron and the icosahedron), asK     well as Square-1(tm), seem too hard for me.  (Square-1, by the way, was &     the hardest puzzle I ever solved).M   A combined xrubik 2x2x2 and xskewb (Longridge's Super Skewb) is possible as =     well but xskewb as it stands, seems hard enough (for me). K   A Billion Barrel would be nice but only with a auto-solver (the puzzle is -     too hard (I confess, I never solved it)). B   A Panex Puzzle with a Tower of Hanoi mode would be nice as well.  G xrubik is currently the only one in this collection with a auto-solver.   = X Window Puzzles port under OpenVMS:                 Nov 1995 # ===================================   H Puzzle programs were already ported under OpenVMS, I have only made some# adjustments to the make procedures:   O Each program has its own MAKE.COM procedure to compile, as previously, with VAX E C on VAX platform. I have added automatic DECW/Motif 1.2/1.1 support.   M Each program has now a MAKE_DECC.COM procedure to compile with DEC C compiler M on VAX platform and a MAKE_AXP.COM procedure to compile under Alpha platform.   ; All references to DEC/TCPIP libraries (aka UCX) are removed   + Each program has now an .HLP VMS help file.    Ressource files: ---------------   L Each program has an PROGRAM.DAT ressource file. You can either copy it underL yout home directory (SYS$LOGIN) or under a system location for a system-wide definition:   C $ copy program.dat sys$common:[decw$defaults.user]* /lo/prot=(w:re)    Exe and obj provided --------------------  & VAX : VMS 5.5-2 , VAX C 3.2, Motif 1.1( Alpha: VMS 6.1-1H2, DEC C 5.0, Motif 1.2     Enjoy,  ) Patrick MOREAU - CENA/Athis-Mons - FRANCE  pmoreau@cena.dgac.fr moreau_p@decus.decus.fr   
