[comp.sources.d] Reve mailing list.

richb@sunaus.oz (Rich Burridge) (12/21/90)

Reve is an othello game. It works under SunView, XView, X11 (Xlib) and on
dumb tty terminals.

Reve has nine levels of difficulty. Levels 1-3 should be useful to beginners,
levels 4-6 would satisfy amateurs, and the higher levels will give experts a
good game. Level 8 (30 minutes) is the tournament level.

It was posted to comp.sources.games about two months ago. So far it has had
five patches.

I am about to start a mailing list for interested people. Please mail me
at one of the addresses given below, if you wish to be added to this list.

The purpose of the list is as follows:

* To send out more patches over the next few months, at which time another
  version of reve will be posted to comp.sources.games. This version should
  have many more features and enhancements.  These patches will probably be
  more frequent in nature and smaller in size, then the ones that have
  appeared over the last two months in comp.sources.games.bugs.

* Updates on problems found with reve, and possible workarounds.

* Suggestions for additional features and enhancements.

* Discussion on othello strategy and techniques.
