+.Ss CONSEQUENCES OF SEPARATE PLAYER AND DRIVER PROCESSES

 When players do something of global interest, such as moving or firing,
 the driver must coordinate the action with the other ships in the game.
 For example, if a player wants to move in a certain direction, he writes a
 message into the temporary file requesting the driver to move his ship.

-delay in moving.  Suppose a player types a move for his ship and hits

-read in the movement command, process it, and write out the results.  This

-.SH THE HISTORY OF SAIL 
-I wrote the first version of
-.I Sail
-on a PDP 11/70 in the fall of 1980.  Needless to say, the code was horrendous,
-not portable in any sense of the word, and didn't work.  The program was not
-very modular and had fseeks() and fwrites() every few lines.  After a
-tremendous rewrite from the top down, I got the first working version up by
-1981.  There were several annoying bugs concerning firing broadsides and
-finding angles.
-.I Sail
-uses no floating point, by the way, so the direction routines are rather 
-tricky.
-Ed Wang rewrote my angle() routine in 1981 to be more correct (although
-it still doesn't work perfectly), and he added code to let a player select
-which ship he wanted at the start of the game (instead of the first one
-available).
-.PP
-Captain Happy (Craig Leres) is responsible for making
-.I Sail
-portable for the first time.  This was no easy task, by the way.  Constants
-like 2 and 10 were very frequent in the code.  I also became famous for
-using "Riggle Memorial Structures" in
-.I Sail.
-Many of my structure references are so long that they run off the line
-printer page.  Here is an example, if you promise not to laugh.

-.I Sail
-received its fourth and most thorough rewrite in the summer and fall
-of 1983.  Ed Wang rewrote and modularized the code (a monumental feat)
-almost from scratch.  Although he introduced many new bugs, the final
-result was very much cleaner and (?) faster.  He added window movement
-commands and find ship commands.

-.SH CONCLUSION

+.Ed
+.Sh HISTORY
+Dave Riggle wrote the first version of
+.Nm
+on a PDP\-11/70 in the fall of 1980.
+Needless to say, the code was horrendous,
+not portable in any sense of the word, and didn't work.
+The program was not
+very modular and had
+.Xr fseek 3
+and
+.Xr fwrite 3
+calls every few lines.
+After a tremendous rewrite from the top down,
+the first working version was up and running by 1981.
+There were several annoying bugs concerning firing broadsides and
+finding angles.
+.\" No longer true...
+.\" .Nm
+.\" uses no floating point, by the way, so the direction routines are rather
+.\" tricky.
+.Pp
+Ed Wang rewrote the
+.Fn angle
+routine in 1981 to be more correct.
+He also added code to let a player select
+which ship he wanted at the start of the game, instead of always
+taking the first one available.
+.Pp
+Captain Happy (Craig Leres) is responsible for making
+.Nm
+portable for the first time.
+This was no easy task.
+Constants like 2 and 10 were very frequent in the code.
+The
+.Nm
+code was also notorious for the use of
+.Dq Riggle Memorial Structures .
+Many structure references were so long that they ran off the line
+printer page.
+Here is an example, if you promise not to laugh:
+.Bd -literal -offset indent
+specs[scene[flog.fgamenum].ship[flog.fshipnum].shipnum].pts
+.Ed
+.Pp
+.Nm
+received its fourth and most thorough rewrite in the summer and fall
+of 1983.
+Ed Wang rewrote and modularized the code (a monumental feat)
+almost from scratch.
+Although he introduced many new bugs, the final result was very much
+cleaner and (?) faster.
+He added window movement commands and find ship commands.
+.Pp
+At some currently unknown time,
+.Nm
+was imported into
+.Bx .
