                  XPhotoHunter v1.4

    This is a game under Unix X-window. The contents of the game is the
same with the Windows95 version "Photohunter". The player has to find
out differences between two pictures. 

Game rule:
        When the game starts, two pictures which are almost the same are
    showed in the two sides of the window. What you need to do is to point
    out the five differences of the two pictures by your mouse.After
    finding out them, the next pictures are showed.
        The game has time limit. When the time is over, your energy get less
    and less. You can also choose to give up and go to the next pictures, but
    the energy will still decrease a bit. If the energy is over, the game
    ends.
        The way to calculate your score is that, every time you find out one
    difference, your score are added by the same with the remaining seconds.
