This document documents otherwise undocumented stuff.


bugs:
   Drop block key does not exit paused state.


start:
   start Otika with "term" as command line parameter (all lowercase) to start
   in Ruri-ruri mode.


keys:
   left = move block left
   right = move block right
   up = rotate block (mirror vertically)
   down = drop block
   pause, p = pause
   r = reset (shift state to title screen)
   d = recapture desktop
   f = recalibrate framerate

   1-9 = set next position where block would appear
   0 = force special block to appear
   F12 = switch to/from Ruri-ruri mode (see below for commands)


mouse:
   left = move window (drag to move)
   right = popup menu


joystick:
   left = move block left
   right = move block right
   up = rotate block (mirror vertically)
   down = drop block
   buttons 1-4 = rotate block
      i.e. SideWinder buttons A/B/C/X, or all Gravis gamepad buttons.
      Windows multimedia library does not support more buttons, and I didn't
      use DirectInput.


Ruri-ruri mode:

   B       Enter "blue screen of death" mode (any key exits)
   C, I    Show item information (requires parameter, match first few letters)
   D, T    Show current time and date
   L       List items (optional parameter filters items)
   E, V    Edit item value
   S       Start game (recalibrate frame rate and all)
   R       Show ranking
   G       Resume game
   Q       End program
   !, 1    Repeat last command

   CLEAR   Reset Ruri-ruri mode
   RESET   Reset options
   EXIT    End program
