NAME
glulxe-glktermw - execute Glulx interactive fiction
SYNOPSIS
glulxe-glktermw filename [ options ]
OVERVIEW
glulxe-glktermw executes Glulx-format interactive fiction games, which typically end with .ulx, .gblorb, .glb, .blorb, or .blb. glulxe-glktermw can work with only a terminal.
The only required parameter is the filename of the game to play. The remaining parameters are all optional, and come from the glktermw library.
If you have glulxe-remglk and/or glulxe-cheapglk executables, these support extra options. Currently these don't have man pages, but you can run them with -help to see the options.
Further information can be found in /usr/doc/glulxe-0.6.1/README.md. Note that the -singleturn example requires glulxe-remglk.
