97              0.0-1.0.  This should always be 0, other values are for compati‐

394       -shipShape <value>
395
396       Define the ship shape to use.
397              Because the argument to this option
398
399              is rather large (up to 500 bytes) the  recommended  way  to  set
400              this  option  is  in  the .xpilotrc file in your home directory.
401              The exact format is defined in the file doc/README.SHIPS in  the
402              XPilot distribution. Note that there is a nifty Unix tool called
403              editss for easy ship creation. There is XPShipEditor for Windows
404              and  Ship Shaper for Java.  See the XPilot FAQ for details.  See
405              also the "shipShapeFile" option  below.   There  is  no  default
406              value for this option.
407
408       -shipShapeFile <value>
409
410              An  optional  file  where  shipshapes  can  be  stored.  If this
411              resource is defined and it refers to an existing file then ship‐
412              shapes  can be referenced to by their name.  For instance if you
413              define shipShapeFile to  be  /home/myself/.shipshapes  and  this
414              file  contains  one  or  more shipshapes then you can select the
415              shipshape by starting xpilot as:
416
417              xpilot -shipShape myshipshapename
418
419              Where "myshipshapename" should be the "name:" or "NM:" of one of
420              the  shipshapes defined in /home/myself/.shipshapes.  Each ship‐
