dab is a game where each player tries to complete the
  most boxes. A turn consists of putting one border of a box; the player setting
  the fourth and final border of a box gets the point for the box and has
  another turn.
The keys used are the vi keys: k for up,
    j for down, h for left, and
    l for right. To switch between even and odd rows,
    use one of the following keys: u (diagonal right
    up), y (diagonal left up), b
    (diagonal left down), n (diagonal right down);
    ⟨space⟩ sets a new border,
    CTRL-L and CTRL-R redraw the
    screen, and q quits the game.
Supported options are:
-a-n
    ngames-p cc

    ⟨c|h⟩⟨c|h⟩c stands for
      computer and h for human.-wxdim and ydim define
    the size of the board in the x and y dimensions. If the dimensions specified
    are 0 then the maximum dimensions for the size of
    the screen are used.
