SYNOPSIS

       genlab    [ -Sv ]    [ -w width ]   [ -h height ]   [ -d wall-density ]
              [ -D door-density ] [ -r random-seed ] lab-file

DESCRIPTION

       genlab generates a file with a random labyrinth  for  the  multi-player
       network action game imaze(6).

OPTIONS

       -d wall-density

       -h height
              Specify height of labyrinth; default is 16.

       -r random-seed

EXAMPLES

       A simple example for a random labyrinth:

              genlab test.lab

       creates a labyrinth test.lab with size 16x16.

       An example how to create a empty labyrinth for xlabed(6):

              genlab -w 12 -h 12 -d 0 empty.lab

       creates a labyrinth empty.lab with size 12x12
