RB's Color Tic-Tac-Toe, version 4.0
Copyright (c) 2000 by Richard Burmeister.
All rights reserved.
=====================================================================
Thank you for downloading RB's Color Tic-Tac-Toe!
RB's Tic-Tac-Toe lets you play the well-known game of tic-tac-toe on
your Palm(TM) handheld computer or compatible device (Palm OS(R) 2.0
or better; 3.5 for color).
No other tic-tac-toe game for the Palm Computing(R) platform can
match the intelligence and fun of RB's Tic-Tac-Toe! RB's Tic-Tac-Toe
has sound effects and five modes of play:
1) Two people play against each other.
2) Play against a dumb computer.
3) Play against a slightly smarter computer.
4) Play against an unbeatable genius computer.
5) Play against a student computer that gets smarter as it plays more
games. (Registration required to play the computer.)
If you are just learning tic-tac-toe, start with the student computer
version, then play against the other computer versions to learn the
winning strategies.
What's New in Version 4.0
=========================
1. Added player names and scores. Now you can keep track of how many
times you beat the computer!
2. Improved the "look and feel" of the game.
3. Easier registration codes - now using
lower case chars and digits.
4. Made some minor code improvements.
5. Fixed a small memory leak introduced in v3.
(see "Recovering Memory" below)
Installation
============
To install RB's Tic-Tac-Toe on your Palm(TM) handheld computer, first
remove any previously installed version. (If you install "on top of"
an earlier version, you will corrupt the program.) Next, extract
rb-ttt4.prc from this zip (or sit) file and install the prc file in
the same way you install any other Palm(TM) applications (with the
Palm(TM) Desktop Install Tool). Sorry, but you will have to enter
your new registration code before you can play against the computer.
