Package: barrage
Version: 1.0.4-3
Severity: normal

Dear Maintainer,

d*** Reporter, please consider answering these questions, where appropriate ***

   * What led up to the situation?
barrage, was in fullscreen mode but i wanted to play it windowed, so i pressed f. But then it crashed with "Segmentation fault"
   * What exactly did you do to work around?
I looked into the man page and found no indication of command line options.
I used command line option --windowed by guessing
   * What was the outcome of this action?
It worked, also crashed when i tried to switch to fullscreen using F but worked out as i liked.

Please add all avaivable command line options to the man page, i found out following by guessing:

--windowed
game starts in windowed mode instead of fullscreen
--no-sound
game has no sound, very nice if you plan to here some other stuff while playing, otherwise sound is very disturbing.

If you can also fix the crash if F key is pressed, otherwise just disable it maybe with a hint to the command line options

thanks and keep up the good work
