# gtkpool(6)

simple GTK+ pool billiard game

## NAME

gtkpool - simple GTK+ pool billiard game

## SYNOPSIS

**gtkpool**

## DESCRIPTION

This manual page briefly documents the **gtkpool** command. It was written for the Debian GNU/Linux distribution because the original program does not have a manual page.

**gtkpool** brings that classic favourite of lounge lizards to a Linux box near you. It currently has a rather simple playing interface, but supports a really nifty customizable physics system.

## OPTIONS

There are no options. Just start the game under X by running *gtkpool*.
