<h2 class="chapter">3 Options</h2>
-<p><a name="index-Options-111"></a><a name="index-Options-112"></a>\r
-This section documents the command-line options to XBoard. You can\r
-set these options in two ways: by typing them on the shell command\r
-line you use to start XBoard, or by setting them as X resources\r
-(typically in your <samp><span class="file">.Xresources</span></samp> file). Many of the options\r
-cannot be changed while XBoard is running; others set the initial\r
-state of items that can be changed with the <a href="Options.html#Options">Options</a> menu.\r
-\r
-Most of the options have both a long name and a short name. To turn a\r
-boolean option on or off from the command line, either give its long\r
-name followed by the value true or false\r
-(‘<samp><span class="samp">-longOptionName true</span></samp>’), or give just the short name to turn the\r
-option on (‘<samp><span class="samp">-opt</span></samp>’), or the short name preceded by ‘<samp><span class="samp">x</span></samp>’ to\r
-turn the option off (‘<samp><span class="samp">-xopt</span></samp>’). For options that take strings or\r
-numbers as values, you can use the long or short option names\r
-interchangeably.\r
-\r
-Each option corresponds to an X resource with the same name, so\r
-if you like, you can set options in your <samp><span class="file">.Xresources</span></samp> file\r
-or in a file named <samp><span class="file">XBoard</span></samp> in your home directory.\r
-For options that have two names, the longer one is the name of\r
-the corresponding X resource; the short name is not recognized.\r
-To turn a boolean option on or off as an\r
-X resource, give its long name followed by the value\r
-true or false (‘<samp><span class="samp">XBoard*longOptionName: true</span></samp>’).\r
