=head1 NAME
oblige - random level generator for Doom and Doom II
=head1 SYNOPSIS
B<oblige> [-options]
=head1 DESCRIPTION
B<oblige> creates a patch WAD file for use with Doom or Doom II,
containing one or more randomly-generated levels. The generated WAD
files are ready to play (no separate node-building pass is needed).
Normally, B<oblige> is controlled by its GUI, but it can be used
noninteractively (see the B<-b> option below).
=head1 OPTIONS
=over 4
=item B<--home> <dir>
Home directory, where B<oblige> looks for its config file, and creates
temporary files. Default is I<~/.oblige>.
=item B<--install> <dir>
Installation directory, where B<oblige> looks for lua scripts and other
data. Default is I</usr/share/oblige>.
=item B<--config> <file>
Config file to use. Default is I<~/.oblige/CONFIG.txt>. Not used in
B<--batch> mode.
=item B<-b,--batch> <output>
Batch mode (no GUI). Uses built-in default config (never reads the
normal config file used by the GUI), but the B<--load> option can be
used to override the defaults. I<output> will be a PWAD file and will
be overwritten without prompting if it exists.
=item B<-l,--load> <file>
Load settings from a file. This is in the same format as
I<~/.oblige/CONFIG.txt>, and any settings in the loaded file will override
the ones there. In B<--batch> mode, "B<--load ~/.oblige/CONFIG.txt>"
will generate levels according to the settings configured by the GUI.
=item B<-k,--keep>
Keep random seed from loaded settings. Normally the seed stored in the
config file is ignored, and a new seed is generated.
=item B<-d,--debug>
Enable verbose debugging messages in log.
=item B<-t,--terminal>
Print log messages to stdout (rather than I<~/.oblige/LIGS.txt>). Disabled
by default, unless in B<--batch> mode.
=item B<-h,--help>
Show built-in help message.
=back
=head1 SEE ALSO
B<oblige-legacy4>(6), an older version of B<oblige> with a simpler
level-generation algorithm and support for other games including Heretic,
Hexen, and Quake.
