- monitored, you can have as many games on the go as you wish - even with
- the same player, displays a digitised picture of you and your opponent,
- accepts only valid moves and can be executed from OLGA CONTROL Centre for
- use with BBS's or from the DOS prompt for 'side-by-side' play.
-
- Recently added is the Replay option.
- You can press R in the middle of a game and see how you got
- in to such a mess.
- or
- You can type REPLAY by itself in the DOS prompt to view all
- games.
-
- It's dead easy to use so the notes are brief.
-
- To pick up a piece use the space bar. Then move the piece with the cursor
- keys. Then put the piece down with the space bar again. Easy. You may
- enter directly the grid references instead. E.g. A2 - A4.
