Hidden Unix Games !!
![]()
Unix games?? Havent heard about that before? There are some games hidden in every unix based operating system. These hidden files are accessable in linux and Mac OS X.
Code:
ls /usr/share/emacs/21.2/lisp/play
For Newbies : Type this code in terminal window (terminal is located in Applications/Utilities)
To play these games, open a new terminal window and type “emacs” and hit return. Once in emacs, press Esc then x to get to the prompt. Now you can type any of the files in the list to play them.
Eg:snake, tetris, pong
