NAME

pioneers-server-gtk - graphical game server for Pioneers

SYNOPSIS

pioneers-server-gtk [options]

DESCRIPTION

This manual page documents briefly the pioneers-server-gtk command.

Pioneers is an implementation of the popular, award-winning "Settlers
of Catan" board game for the GNOME desktop environment. It uses a
client/server model for networked play of between two and eight
players. This program provides a GUI-configurable stand-alone server
which you connect to from pioneers itself.

OPTIONS

Pioneers accepts the standard GTK+ commandline options.

ENVIRONMENT

The default settings of the server can be influenced with the
following three environment variables:

PIONEERS_METASERVER
The hostname of the metaserver when no metaserver is specified
in the user interface. (The settings file takes precedence)

PIONEERS_SERVER_NAME
The hostname of the server. If it is not set, the hostname is
determined by hostname(1). (The settings file takes
precedence)

PIONEERS_DIR
The path to the game definition files. If it is not set, the
default installation path will be used.
