ms.c: A Minesweeper clone with a character interface. Uses vi keystrokes (e.g. h, j, k, l) to move around the screen (using curses), so you know it's got to be wonderful. A simple lark project.

John R. Kerl 12/23/95

Compiling and running

Compile with

  gcc ms.c -lcurses -o ms

Run with

  ./ms

For help:

  ./ms -h

Usage

  • Cursor motion as in vi: h j k l 0 $ H M L
  • Set flags with f
  • Step with s
  • There is no question-mark-setting feature
  • Control-C to quit early
  • Carriage return to quit at end of game
