OPTIONS
=======
.. notice the **-opt** *param* stuff? rst's option recognition
.. can't handle non-GNU-style options like -option (it thinks the
.. option is -o, and the ption is the parameter). So we have to help
.. it out a little.
*--version*
Outputs the port's version to standard output and
into message box.
*--aog_sw*
Switches the port to Blake Stone: Aliens of Gold (shareware, v3.0) mode.
If appropriate data files will not be found the port will fail.
Default switch strategy: AoG (full) -> AoG (SW) -> PS
*--aog_10*
Switches the port to Blake Stone: Aliens of Gold (full, v1.0) mode.
If appropriate data files will not be found the port will fail.
Default switch strategy: AoG (full) -> AoG (SW) -> PS
*--aog_2x*
Switches the port to Blake Stone: Aliens of Gold (full, v2.0/v2.1) mode.
If appropriate data files will not be found the port will fail.
Default switch strategy: AoG (full) -> AoG (SW) -> PS
*--aog_30*
Switches the port to Blake Stone: Aliens of Gold (full, v3.0) mode.
If appropriate data files will not be found the port will fail.
Default switch strategy: AoG (full) -> AoG (SW) -> PS
*--ps*
Switches the port to Blake Stone: Planet Strike (full, v1.0/v1.1) mode.
If appropriate data files will not be found the port will fail.
Default switch strategy: AoG (full) -> AoG (SW) -> PS
*--no_screens*
Skips start-up screens (AoG/PS) and ending promo pages (AoG SW only).
*--cheats*
Enables so called "debug mode" without much fuss.
*--data_dir path_to_data*
Specifies location to the game's data files.
Default: /usr/share/games/bstone/
*--profile_dir path*
Overrides default location of the game's profile files. Config files
and savegames are written here.
Default: .local/share/bibendovsky/bstone/
*--vid_renderer [soft|ogl]*
Forces to use a specified renderer.
"soft" selects a software renderer.
"ogl" selects an OpenGL 2.x compatible renderer.
Default order without this option: ogl, soft.
*--vid_windowed*
Runs the game in windowed mode.
Default video mode: 640x480
*--vid_mode width height*
Selects the specified resolution for windowed mode.
Without this option the game will use desktop's resolution.
Minimum width: 640
Minimum height: 480
*--vid_scale factor*
Refinement factor. The higher a value the greater internal resolution
mode will be used to render a scene. The dimensions of the resolution mode
are proportional to the original one (320x200) by 'factor' value.
This option can greatly affect the performance of a renderer (especially a
software one).
Minimum factor: 1 (identical to the original game)
Default factor: depends on the game's resolution mode.
