.SH NAME
gameclock \- a simple game clock
.SH SYNOPSIS
.B gameclock
.SH DESCRIPTION
This manual page documents briefly the
.B gameclock
command.
.PP
.\" TeX users may be more comfortable with the \fB<whatever>\fP and
.\" \fI<whatever>\fP escape sequences to invode bold face and italics,
.\" respectively.
\fBgameclock\fP is a simple application designed to track the time
spent thinking by the players during a chess game. Various ways of
tracking time are supported, with only `countdown' (aka `blitz') and
`fisher' for now. The graphical interface is keyboard driven and is
intended to be minimal and simple. The code is made to be extensible
to other game types.

options starting with two dashes (\-\-).
