OpenJazz can be compiled on a wide range of operating systems, +including Windows 98/Me/XP and Linux. OpenJazz requires the files +from any of the following games: + +=over + +=item Jazz Jackrabbit + +=item Jazz Jackrabbit CD + +=item Jazz Jackrabbit Shareware Edition + +=item Jazz Jackrabbit Christmas Edition + +=item Jazz Jackrabbit: Holiday Hare 1995 + +=back + +OpenJazz will not work with any of the Jazz Jackrabbit 2 games. Don't +get confused: there's a "Holiday Hare 1998", which isn't supported +(only the 1995 version is). + +There is no support for saving/loading the game. Multiplayer +is supported, but not well tested. + +=head1 OPTIONS + +B<-f> starts the game fullscreen. Any other option beginning with - will +be ignored. Anything else is treated as a directory to be added to the +file search path. + +=head1 FILES + +Game data files must be named in uppercase (e.g. B<BLOCKS.000>). + +The search path for game data files includes, in order: + +=over + +=item the current directory + +=item $HOME/.openjazz/ + +=item all paths listed on the command line I<in reverse order> + +=back + +In addition, the file B<openjazz.000> (containing the OpenJazz logo, +note the lowercase name) will be searched for in B</usr/share/openjazz> +after all other directories (so each separate game doesn't need its +own copy, when you've got multiple games installed). + +B<$HOME/.openjazz/> stores user preferences and any custom levels +downloaded from multiplayer servers. Will be created if it doesn't +exist. + +=head1 SEE ALSO + +B<http://www.alister.eu/jazz/oj/faq.php> + +=head1 AUTHORS + +B<openjazz> is copyright (c) 2005-2013 Alister Thomson. + +This man page written by B.
