Information about dam3.0

call:
% dam [options]

options:
-w	computer plays white
-b	computer plays black
-z	computer speelt zwart
-d	use display features of HP
-n	normal output, even to HP
-p<nr>	print board once every <nr> moves
-p	do not print the board unless explicitly asked for
	(by default the board is printed after each move)
-r<nr>	define recursion depth (default -r100)
-s<nr>	sleep for <nr> seconds after printing the board

In addition options of the form
!cmd
are allowed, and have the same effect as the same command
during play. Note that if cmd contains spaces or special
characters, the option should be given as
"!cmd"

During play the moves must be typed in the format
<from>-<to>	for a non-capture
<from>x<to>	for a capture
		if several captures with the same 'from' and 'to'
		fields are possible, all captured stones must be
		listed in order:
<from>x<to>(<p1>,...,<pn>)
		on the other hand if either the <to> or the <from>
		field defines the move uniquely, it suffices:
<from>

instead of typing a move, a command starting with '!' can be given.
commands:
!a	alter position (not allowed after an interrupt)
	format:
!a<col> <nr>	alter field <nr> into a piece of type <col>
!a <nr>		make field <nr> empty
!b	play black
!c	crown pieces of opponent to kings
!d<str>	define display image or printed symbol for the white and
	black pieces (default: " wzWZ");
!e	end this game (= resign)
!h	halt and read a series of commands ending
	with a line containing . only
!i	print information (i.e., this text)
!I	I play black and white
!Iw	I play white
!Ib	I play black
!Iz	ik speel zwart
!m<nr>	retrieve the position after the <nr>th move
!m-<nr>	take back <nr> moves
!mw	white to move
!mb	black to move
!mz	zwart aan zet
!pb	print board
!p	print board (and on HP also the list of moves)
!p<nr>	print board every <nr> moves
!r<nr>	define recursion depth
!rm<nr>	define minimal recursion depth (default 1; should be 3)
!rf<file>  read position from file
!rt	read position from terminal
	format of position:
<col>: <nr>-<nr>,<nr>
	where <col> is w,z,b,wk,wd,zk,zd,bk or bd
	the description ends with a dot.
!s<nr>	sleep for <nr> seconds after each prbord
!t	print time used
!v	define strategy
!x	exit
!w	play white
!z	speel zwart
