BARDARTS is not guaranteed to work on all machines. It needs an
EGA with 256k on video board to work, using the 640 x 350 mode.
If you encounter any bugs or have some useful suggestions please
write to me at address below:

CONTROLS
Place the cursor to where you want the dart to go, using the
arrow keys. You can change the amount of pixels the cursor moves
using Pg Up and Pg Dn keys.Pg Up key reduces the movement, Pg Dn
increases cursor movement.
ENTER key sets the clockmeter ot 6 o'clock, any key after starts
the clock in a cw rotation. Your aim is controlled by how close
you can come to 12 o'clock, this controls how the dart hits the board
up or down to the cursor. Now the clock rotates ccw, and your aim
is controlled by how close you can come to 6 o'clock. Depending
on where you stop the clock is where the dart goes left or right of
cursor.
space bar resets game
The c key changes color of the cursor.
To quit hit 'q'
RULES
301
In the standard games of 301 darts, your aim is to reduce the starting
score - 301 - to exactly zereo. Darts in the inner bull score 50
and in the outer bull 25. Darts in a sector score according to the
sector number, unless they land in the outer 'doubles' ring, when
they score double the number, or the inner 'trebles' ring, when they
score three times the number. The game must end with a DOUBLE that
brings the score down to exactly 0. (The inner bull counts as a double
because it's double 25.) Each player throws three consecutive darts
a session.
If your score drops below zereo or one, then the entire session of
darts thrown(1 to 3) is erased to previous session's score. For example,
if the score is 20, you need a double 10 to win. If you throw a single
10 then a single 20, you are -10 or 'bust' and your score is 20 again.
The number right above the dart board is the distance the dart thrown
is from the center of bull. You can use this number when shooting for
the bull to determine which player is closest to the bull. Keep in mind
that red always goes first, so the player who is closest must choose
red. Hit space bar to reset game after determining which player is the
closest to the bull's eye.
To simulate what might happen in a real game of darts, a dart that
lands very close to a dart that is already on the board might fall
from the dartboard.
You can pass along this program to your friends, and even your
enemies as long as all these files are intact and not tampered
with in any way.
