_X_M_e_m_o_r_y is a multi player memory game. It is played
simultaenously on several X Displays, which have to be
listed on the command-line. To run properly, the access to
the selected X Displays must be allowed. This can be
achieved in the usual manner by running _x_h_o_s_t on the desired
displays.
RRRRuuuulllleeeessss
Like in the traditional memory game, the players have to
find similar tiles on the table to get the tiles. The main
change in this version is, that the players play
simultaenously and therefor the whole game gets some kind of
an action game.
Opening a tile leads to a lock of the tile for about 3
seconds when opening the first tile. 1 second after opening
the second tile, both tiles flip back and therefor are
accessable again for all other players.
Winner is the player who collected the most matching tiles.

The List of players is a list of the display names. If
desired, a color can be selected for a display by
concatinating a slash and the name of the color after the
display name, e.g. hgr3:0.0/brown.
FFFFoooonnnnttttssss
The program tries to use scalable fonts on the displays. If
the fonts are not found or don't look pretty, check out if
the fontserver _f_s is running on the display.
