3 empdump \- Export/import Empire game state
18 exports and imports game state as plain text.
22 Use game configuration in \fIconfigfile\fR.
25 Help. Print brief usage information and exit.
28 Import from \fIdump-file\fR.
31 Use machine-readable format for export. Import always recognizes both
32 machine-readable and human-readable format.
35 Dry run, don't actually update game state on import.
38 Print version information and exit.
41 Export game state to standard output.
44 can't export player bmaps, power report, telegrams, announcements,
45 message of the day, no-login message and log files. Exported
46 floating-point values may be inexact. Importing an exported game
47 state may not result in identical data files; besides the loss of
48 floating-point precision just mentioned, coordinates are normalized,
49 and characters beyond a string's terminating zero in a character array
