This version is very bad, looks awful, and needs a numeric argument for the pause between each block move.
$ ./tetrix 2500
works okay for me, but it should be stated prominently in the docs.
src: time(&int) and all exit() calls needed to be fixed.
needs feature: the pause has to be calculated from the cpu clock, not per cmdline argument.


I would vote no.

http://www.ibiblio.org/pub/Linux/games/arcade/tetris/xtetris-2.6.tar.gz seems to be better for package inclusion imho.
there are about 20 other tetris clones there, even one with X Windows joystick support! (something for harold :)
