Changes for version 0.04 - 2026-10-13

  • Add options, the fields a launcher offers before a game
  • The keys, the screen and the cursor steering are Game::Terminal::Kit's
  • Requires perl 5.14
  • The picker redraws in place, and shift-tab walks the squares backwards
  • Fix: after t the square you type was not echoed
  • to_text and from_text carry the variant, the first colour, the starting board, the seed, and a resignation, timeout or abandonment
  • Add u and r, and typed undo and redo, to take a turn back and play it again; start plays a game it is given

Modules

the board game of 1883, with its own opening
the 64 squares, the eight rays, and what outflanks what
an opponent that does not simply grab discs
why a move was refused
one placement or one play, and what it turned
squares, boards and transcripts as text
the four discs the players place themselves
who won, by what, and for how much
whose turn, when a turn is forfeited, and when it ends
what a finished game is worth
a playable game on two filehandles
