 SYNOPSIS
      xbill [-l<n>, -L<n>][-s][-v]

 DESCRIPTION
      xbill

      Ever get the feeling that nothing is going right?  You're a sysadmin,
      and someone's trying to destroy your computers.  The little people
      running around the screen are trying to infect your computers with
      Wingdows [TM], a virus cleverly designed to resemble a popular
      operating system.  Your objective is to click the mouse on them,
      ending their potential threat.  If one of the people reaches a
      computer, it will attempt to replace your operating system with the
      virus it carries. It will then attempt to run off the screen with your
      vital software.

      Clicking the button on one of the little people will cause it to cry
      out in pain and melt (id software eat your heart out!), dropping the
      stolen os if it is carrying one.  If a computer is running Wingdows or
      is temporarily off, the os can be dragged back to the computer (or
      another computer originally running the same os).

      The status bar at the bottom tells the following:
              Number of Bills on and off the screen
              Number of computers running their OS, off, and Wingdows
              Level
              Score

      Command line options:
      -l<n>, -L<n>   Start on level n
      -s             Only redraw half as often. May
      -v             Print version number and exit
