+.SH DESCRIPTION
+The program demonstrates a search algorithm designed for locating a
+source of odor in turbulent atmosphere. The odor is convected by wind
+which has a constant mean direction and fluctuations around it. The
+searcher is able to sense the odor and determine local instantaneous
+wind direction. The goal is to find the source in the shortest mean
+time.  Some animals face this task to find mates, food, home etc. They
+exhibit very particular, zigzagging search trajectories.
+
+This is modeled as a search on a discrete two-dimensional lattice. The
+source releases particles that drift with constant velocity in one
+direction and walk randomly in the other direction. The searcher knows
+if it hit a particle, and if so, particle's position one time step
+earlier (local wind direction). The program paints sources and
+particles released by them as well as trajectories of searchers who are
+trying to capture the sources.
