    <desc>Enable relative movement.</desc>

  <title>Relative movement</title>

  <p>When relative movement is enabled, the worm is maneuvered using just the
  default <key>Left</key> and <key>Right</key> keys or other
  <link xref="controls-change">customized keys</link> that control the leftward
  and rightward movement of a worm. When the <key>Left</key> key is pressed,
  the worm turns left, instead of moving towards the left of the screen.
  Similarly, when the <key>Right</key> key is pressed, the worm turns right
  instead of moving towards the right of the screen.</p>
