.SH FILES
|
|
.TP
|
|
.B /var/games/tint.scores
|
|
High scores are stored here. The file is group-owned by the \fBgames\fR
|
|
group, and the game runs setgid so that all users' high scores can be
|
|
written to the file.
|
|
.PP
|
|
To reset the high scores, you can truncate the file to zero bytes, but
|
|
don't delete it or change its permissions/ownership. One way to do this:
|
|
.PP
|
|
root@darkstar# truncate -s0 /var/games/tint.scores
