Goldmine
--------

Goldmine is a Boulderdash clone. The aim of the game is to collect 
all the gold bars on the screen and the rules are very simple:

   1. You have the strength to push ONE rock sideway, provided
      there is nothing blocking the rock in the direction you
      are pushing it.
   2. You can move underneath a rock without being crushed
      (you only get crush if a rock FALLS on you).


The game has 35 builtin levels/mines and it also has a builtin mine editor, 
which allows you to create your own set of mines. Initially, the game saves
the newly created set of mines in a file called "GOLDMINE.MNE", it can be 
renamed to any name that you prefer.

To run the game with a new set of mines, simply type in the mines filename
after the program name when running the program, 

e.g. "GOLDMINE GOLDMINE.MNE".
