Genius is a Macintosh rendition of the popular board game where you try to remove all the pegs from a triangular board by jumping pegs.
The object of the game is to get rid of all of the pegs on the board except one by jumping over adjacent pegs to remove them.
To jump a peg, simply click on any peg on the board and drag it to its destination hole. If it can go into that hole, the peg that it will remove will be over-shadowed.

Change history:
Version 1.2
-- Numerous internal changes made (why this is 1.2, not 1.1.1)
-- Special thanks to Tex Prescher of Farallon Computing QA for finding an especially obscure bug, which earned him a free registered copy of Genius 1.2. The bug occurred when you typed names for the Hi IQ list with the lowercase letters 'a' or 'z'.
Version 1.1
Although this is not the initial release, I wrote this game so many years ago that I can't remember all the bugs I have fixed since then.
