- Mancala 1.0 (April 1997) -=- S3A
- ---------------------------------------
- This is my first attempt at creating a PSION game. Actually, this is
- my first OPL program that really does something...
-
- I think it is not that bad for a first application. If you want, just
- drop me an email telling what you think of it, or any suggestions to
- improve the game; I would really appreciate.
-
- The help file gives all instruction necessary to learn how to play.
-
- I would like to thank Frederic Botton for his patience and
- all the help he gave me when I was lost...
- He is the author of a couple great games for the PSION (Greedy,
- Mille-Bornes, Memory) You should take a look at them!!!
- His home page is
- http://ourworld.compuserve.com/homepages/FBotton/psion.htm
- His latest one, Greedy was released not too long ago. I followed it's
- development in the last phase, and that's what gave me the urge to try
- to create something myself in OPL.
-
- Free application
- ----------------
- Feel free to pass this software to anybody you know.
- Inclusion in any software library, on floppy, CDRom, electronically
- etc. is very welcome as long as you do not alter the archive.
- If you're intending to insert Mancala 1.0 in a library (on floppy,

- more than the usual media & postage fees.

-
- Aditional files
- ---------------
- The Mancala game will create a single file that holds the settings.
- The file located in your \OPD directory is called OKSoft.ini
- If you remove the OKSoft.ini file, you will loose all the current
- settings, but it will recreate itself the next time you run the game.
-
- Known bugs
- ----------
- The only known bug at this point is that if you play on the PSION Emulator
- on the PC with sound on, it will hang. This is because I simulate key clicks
- with a BEEP -1,10 which the emulator does not like. If someone has a better
- way of simulating the key clicks, please let me know.
-
- Although this program has been tested over a decent period of time, there
- might still be some bugs in it. If so, please send me an email and I will
- correct it.
