* libXp was used by Xaw8, but it had been obsolated, and in pkgsrc,
x11/libXaw/buildlink3.mk had been switched to pick up Xaw7 by default.
* With x11/xorg-cf-files, libXp was offered with XawClientLibs,
but updated to 1.0.4, it was removed.
* And pkgsrc had been switched to use always xorg-cf-files and imake from pkgsrc,
so all platforms should not require libXp from libXaw with Imake.

27th of October 2006. This new release brings the following new
features:
new 1-player game mode: multiplayer training; uses identical
game rules as multiplayer, generated malus bubbles are counted
as points - what score will you be able to reach in the 2
minutes time frame?
network (Internet) game: up to 5 players in a game (net game
system has logic able to transparently handle players behind
a NAT)
LAN game: similar to network game except that no connection to
Internet is made, substituted by polling the local network
fully revamped graphics, including now 3d-based smooth penguin
eyecandy
revamped intro and 1p music into fully digital productions
full joystick support: just move your joystick(s) or push
buttons in the "change keys" dialog (analog joysticks handled

A 3D maze game based on a similar game I read the source to in an
Australian PC magazine in the mid 1980s. Implemented using curses,
so that you can play it on a VT100 should you so desire.
In this game, you are robot (#). Your job is to find kitten. This task
is complicated by the existence of various things which are not kitten.
Robot must touch items to determine if they are kitten or not. The game
ends when robotfindskitten.
