     This program will score a golf tournament in which each player competes
at match play with each other player in his flight. It writes and constantly
updates a 'results' file. If the program is interrupted for any reason, it may
be restarted by loading the (possibly incomplete) current results file.

     Included are two demonstration files, 'Entries.tst' and 'Demo.dat'. The
first is an abbreviated 'Entry List' file, included mainly to illustrate the
required format of the entry list. The second is a much larger file, with
five flights and with scores given for most of the entrants. It may be used
to check the various processes and options as described in 'Mtchplay.doc'.
Each flight contains an entry named "Noscores, xxx", for whom no scores have
been entered. ('xxx' is Zero, One, Two, Three, Four according to the flight
number. If you first use the 'Display' option, and later give scores to each
of the 'Noscores' players, you can see how long the program takes on your
computer to recalculate all results, and then, using 'Display' again, can
check whether the recalculation is done correctly. You may also check out all
the other options using the 'Demo.dat' data. Note that if you use the 'Print
Matches' option, you will be left with a disk file or files named 'Matches.x',
where x is a flight number. These files probably should be erased since they
do not refer to any real data.
