+extra-terrestrial powers in the defense of humanity, and send those alien
invaders back from whence they came!
You play the part of a flying alien heroine who must defend her home on
through options passed as program arguments or given in config files.
\fByoink\fP looks for config files in several locations and in this order:
.TP
-1. \fI@DATADIR@/yoinkrc\fP
+1. \fI@datadir@/yoinkrc\fP
This is the base config file which should be considered read-only. Look to
this file as an example of the format used for config files.

.I YOINK_DATADIR
If set to a path of a valid directory, \fByoink\fP will look in this
constant. A constant 20fps or 30fps will look better than a sporadic
40-60fps. You can also decrease the \fBtimestep\fP at the expense of
decreased simulation accuracy. You'll have to experiment with this value
-to find out acceptable levels.
