                           the jigsaw puzzle

     available at ftp.x.org and mirrors as:
                        /contrib/games/xjig-2.4.tgz

     Description:
          XJig is a puzzle, that tries to replicate a jigsaw puzzle on the
          screen as close as possible. Gif-images can be loaded and sliced
          into pieces and as in every jigsaw puzzle, the goal is to
          set the parts together again.

     Special effects:
          - Tiles are freely rotatable with intuitive pointer movement.
          - Tiles can even be flipped to their back (to mirror them).
          - Tiles can be shown as shaped windows on the desktop.

     Restrictions:
     -  The game needs a C++ - compiler (tested with gcc-2.7.0 and HP's CC)
     -  The game works only on color monitors.
     -  For the texture-mapping routines, you might a bit of machine power
        to make them look good (it runs very smooth on my Pentium 90).

     Have fun.
