NAME

maze − generate a maze problem

SYNOPSIS

maze [ −fl | −fi | −df | −sf ] [width height]

DESCRIPTION

Without arguments, maze defaults to the standard behavior. It asks for the desired width and height, then displays a maze on standard output.

Maze contains five maze types: the normal one (no option), flood fills (−fl), fiendish random mazes (−fi), fiendish favoring longer paths ("deep" fiendish: −df), and fiendish favoring shorter paths ("shallow" fiendish: −sf).

Maze also accepts the width and height on the command line. If either is too small, it will prompt for a replacement.

BUGS

Large mazes are slow.
