Yes, I meant a program to play against the computer. Finesse Bridge (Win98 only) gives a fairly good imitation of club players & there are some very strong commercial offerings for M$ Windows. However, no-one has ever set out to create such a program for UNIX. There are excellent chess programs for Linux & a Go program which makes me (2 kyu) think a bit -- tho' Go is much more difficult for a computer than is chess -- , so I return to my sociological question in the previous message. -- ========================,,============================================ SUPPORT ___________//___, Philip Webb : [EMAIL PROTECTED] ELECTRIC /] [] [] [] [] []| Centre for Urban & Community Studies TRANSIT `-O----------O---' University of Toronto -- gentoo-user@gentoo.org mailing list
