<h2>Running Yadex remotely</h2>
<p>Like any non-SHM X application, Yadex can be run remotely. That is, the
machine on which Yadex runs and the machine that Yadex uses for its display do
not have to be the same. For example, from Unix box <code>mine</code> on your
desk, you can telnet into Unix box <code>hers</code> in another room and run
Yadex from there, but have it display on <code>mine</code>.
<pre>mine$ <b>xhost hers</b>
hers$ <b>DISPLAY=mine:0 yadex</b></pre>
<h2>Having several versions of Yadex installed simultaneously</h2>
<p>Starting with version 1.3.0, it should be easier to have several versions
of Yadex installed at once. When you install Yadex <b>x.y.z</b>, the following
files are created :
<ul>
<li><code>/usr/local/bin/yadex-<b>x.y.z</b></code>
<li><code>/usr/local/share/games/yadex/<b>x.y.z</b>/*.ygd</code>
<li><code>/etc/yadex/<b>x.y.z</b>/yadex.cfg</code>
<li><code>/usr/local/man/man6/yadex-<b>x.y.z.</b>.6</code>
</ul>
All these files have the version number somewhere in their name. Therefore,
when you install a new version, the previous version(s) is/are not clobbered.
<p>In addition, the installation creates <code>/usr/local/bin/yadex</code> as a
symlink to <code>/usr/local/bin/yadex-x.y.z</code>, so that you can still
invoke Yadex by typing just "<code>yadex</code>". To invoke older versions,
type the long name ("<code>yadex-x.y.z</code>").
<p>Same thing for the man page.
