 Kropki for DOS/Windows -- README-dos
 http://www.nongnu.org/kropki/

----------------------------------------------------------------------
 Launching the program
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Before you launch Kropki (or any other new program), I suggest you
check it with some antivirus software.
There is no warranty for Kropki.
See the GNU General Public Licence version 2 in the file COPYING.

To launch kropki, just execute kropki_w.exe in its directory.

Kropki_w.exe is compiled using MinGW http://www.mingw.org/,
see 'How to compile' section for more details.

You may also want to edit file kropki.cfg and change the lines
'language' or 'rozdzx' and 'rozdzy' (the last two for screen resolution).

----------------------------------------------------------------------
 How to play
----------------------------------------------------------------------
You put your dot on the board by left-clicking a point.
Then computer player puts its dot, then you and so on.
The goal is to capture more enemy's dots.

Sometimes you may need to press Ctrl-L to refresh the screen.
 

----------------------------------------------------------------------
 How to compile
----------------------------------------------------------------------
You will need the GRX library: http://grx.gnu.de/
the pthreads-win32 library: http://sources.redhat.com/pthreads-win32/
and possibly the SDL library: http://www.libsdl.org/

You may compile the source using one of the following free compilers:

a) DJGPP, http://www.delorie.com/djgpp/
(not tested in current version, may not work...)

b) MinGW, http://www.mingw.org/

c) Cygwin, http://www.cygwin.com/

Now I compile on GNU/Linux using cross compiler mingw:
  make -f Makefile.mingw-cross
Follow the instructions in README  (for GNU/Linux).
