./games/corewars, Programs on a virtual machine, fighting each other

[ Image CVSweb ] [ Image Homepage ] [ Image RSS ] [ Image Required by ]

Branch: CURRENT, Version: 0.9.13nb5, Package name: corewars-0.9.13nb5, Maintainer: pkgsrc-users

Corewars is a simulation game where a number of warriors try to
crash each other while they are running in a virtual computer. The
warriors can be written in one of two assembler-like languages called
Corewars and Redcode. Corewars is the default language and is easier
to learn and understand. Redcode provides more advanced and powerful
instructions but also requires more time to learn.

You can watch your warriors while they are running in the main
program window. A statistic window will give you live coverage of
just how well your warriors are doing. A tournament mode will allow
you to run you own tournaments on your computer.

Log message:
Sort PLIST files.

Unsorted entries in PLIST files have generated a pkglint warning for at
least 12 years. Somewhat more recently, pkglint has learned to sort
PLIST files automatically. Since pkglint 5.4.23, the sorting is only
done in obvious, simple cases. These have been applied by running:

  pkglint -Cnone,PLIST -Wnone,plist-sort -r -F
