   No, this program has no connection to the movie in which people were told to 
lean out of their windows and shout "I'm mad as hell and I'm not going to take 
it any more!"  You can do this if you wish, though; see if I care.

   Actually, Network is a game in which the two players place their tokens on 
the spaces of a game board that is connected by a network of lines (hence the 
name).  Your aim is to get three tokens in a row, kind of like Tic-Tac-Toe on a 
much more complex playing field.  However, in a great deviation from Tic-Tac-Toe 
and its descendants, getting three in a row doesn't call an end to the game.  
What it does is give you the right to capture one of the opponent's pieces.  
Capture three of them, and you win.

   Each player has only five pieces.  Once they're all placed, a turn consists 
of moving a piece along a line of the network.  If a player can't make a move, 
due to lack of remaining pieces or because all remaining pieces are blocked by 
the opponent's pieces, then the opponent wins. 

   For complete rules, see the instructions within the program.
