                     31: In
                     32: .I worm,
                     33: you are a little worm, your body is the "o"'s on the screen
                     34: and your head is the "@".  You move with the hjkl keys (as in the game
                     35: snake).  If you don't press any keys, you continue in the direction you
                     36: last moved.  The upper case HJKL keys move you as if you had pressed
                     37: several (9 for HL and 5 for JK) of the corresponding lower case key
                     38: (unless you run into a digit, then it stops).
                     39: .PP
                     40: On the screen you will see a digit, if your worm eats the digit is will
                     41: grow longer, the actual amount longer depends on which digit it was
                     42: that you ate.  The object of the game is to see how long you can make
                     43: the worm grow.
                     44: .PP
                     45: The game ends when the worm runs into either the sides of the screen,
                     46: or itself.  The current score (how much the worm has grown) is kept in
                     47: the upper left corner of the screen.
                     48: .PP
                     49: The optional argument, if present, is the initial length of the worm.
                     50: .SH BUGS
                     51: If the initial length of the worm is set to less than one or more
                     52: than 75, various strange things happen.
