size - specifies the size of each square in pixels, the default is 26
numbers - specifies whether the rows are numbered. Options are: left, right, both, or none (default)
letters - specifies whether the columns are lettered. Options are: top, bottom, both, or none (default)
<a1>, <b1>, ... <c3> - define the corresponding squares of the Martian coaster, see below

A square is defined by the name of the piece or empty parameter. The names of the pieces are coded as two characters. The first character is the color (r, o, y, g, b, or v) and the second character is the number of pips (1, 2, or 3). An empty square is written using either underscores (__), spaces ( ), or nothing at all. It is recommended to use two spaces. Three special characters are provided: Cross, black dot, and white dot. A cross is written as xx, a black dot as xo, and a white dot as oo. Numbers can also be displayed. A zero is written as x0, one is written as x1, and so on to nine (x9).


In the following examples the rows and columns are labeled. Because any text between "|=" and the next "|" is ignored, numbers, letters, and other comments can be included without affecting the output.
