+.SH NAME
+gemdropx \- an interesting one-player puzzle game for X-Window
+.SH SYNOPSIS
+.B gemdropx [--help] [--version] [--usage] [--nomusic]
+.\"[DISPLAY]
+.SH DESCRIPTION
+This manual page was written for the Debian GNU/Linux distribution
+because the original program does not have a manual page.
+Instead, it has documentation in /usr/share/doc/gemdropx/README.txt.gz
+
+\fBgemdropx\fP is an interesting one-player puzzle game for X-Window.
+It is a direct port of Gem Drop, an Atari 8-bit game written in Action!
+(a very fast C- and Pascal-like compiled language for the Atari).  The
+concept of the game Gem Drop is based on an arcade game for the NeoGeo
+system called "Magical Drop III" by SNK.
+
+If you're familiar with games like Jewels, Klax, Bust-A-Move or Tetris,
+this game is similar to them all.  I consider it closest to Klax.
