Changes for version 0.03 - 2026-10-13

  • Add options, the fields a launcher offers before a game
  • The keys, the screen and the opening questions are Game::Terminal::Kit's
  • Requires perl 5.14
  • NO_COLOR=0 turns colour off; shift-tab, home and end work in the opening questions, the digits no longer do
  • Between two squares equally near, an arrow takes the one straighter ahead
  • as_text writes a waiting draw offer and the attackers at p2, and from_text reads them back
  • u undoes and r redoes a turn, through Game::Terminal::Kit::History; the rules key is now R
