 JULY 1991.

This version released...
Friday, AUGUST 23rd 1991.

SPREAD IT.


Here's my entrant in the smallest
 connect 4 competition, think you
 can beat me? You waste your time.

You will always be, weaker than I.


It plays reasonably well, but I've
 not yet done the advanced searches
 so look out for version 2.

The function keys (f1 to f8) are used
 to play this version, a mouse routine
 would have meant a bigger size.

You may notice that unlike some massive
 versions I could mention, it shows
 the score, it also displays the  
 winning line and doesn't take all day
 making its move. (I hope)

All these points should be bourne in 
 mind as you are trying to write your
 (smaller) version.

I wasn't going to pack it, but then I
 thought stuff it and did.
 The reduction in size was about 12%

If you find any bugs etc, trash it.
	yours sincerely... GOTH.


Nice work Jeferey, you have the record
....for now.
