tkAtaxx v1.0 --- Copyright (c) 1995 John Williams Distributed with ABSOLUTELY NO WARRANTY (GNU General Public Licence) If you like it, send the author email and tell him so. Suggestions for improving the interface are especially welcome. John Williams Introduction: Ataxx is a strategy game similar to Othello. The rules are in ataxx.txt (Help:Rules from the menu). Want more? Making it work: 1. Edit tkataxx: Make sure the first line calls wish version 4.0 properly. Make sure the ATAXXDIR variable points to the installation directory. (ATAXXDIR is initially set to "." so you can test in the current dir.) 2. Compile the computer player (ctaxx.c). It is rather generic ansi C code and should compile with any ansi C compiler. I recommend: gcc -O2 -o ctaxx ctaxx.c strip ctaxx There is a list of platforms on which ctaxx has been successfully compiled, with the command used, at the beginning of ctaxx.c. Installation: 1. Copy the distribution files into a directory such as /usr/local/lib/tkataxx 2. Make sure the ATAXXDIR variable in tkataxx points to the above directory 3. Move (or link) the tkataxx file to a directory such as /usr/local/games
