           In _w_o_r_m, you are a little worm, your body is the "o"'s on
           the screen and your head is the "@".  You move with the hjkl
           keys (as in the game snake).  If you don't press any keys,
           you continue in the direction you last moved.  The upper
           case HJKL keys move you as if you had pressed several (9 for
           HL and 5 for JK) of the corresponding lower case key (unless
           you run into a digit, then it stops).

           On the screen you will see a digit. If your worm eats the
           digit, it will grow longer.  The amount of growth depends on
           the digit.  The object of the game is to eat a lot a digits
           and make the worm really long.

           The game ends when the worm runs into either the sides of
           the screen, or itself.  The current score (how much the worm
           has grown) is kept in the upper left corner of the screen.

           _s_i_z_e is the optional argument that sets the initial length
                of the worm.  _S_i_z_e must be an integer in the range 1 to
                75, inclusive.
