Please, find attached GNU Shogi 1.1E for the Macintosh (based on UNIX
version 1.1 patch level 02).

GNU Shogi plays Shogi, the Japanese equivalent of Chess. The main
differences between Shogi and Chess are: 1) captured pieces can be dropped
again by the captor, and 2) almost all pieces can promote. This makes for a
very aggressive game, which (contrary to western chess) gets more
interesting and complicated towards the end.

Requirements: Macintosh with 68020 or better. System 6.0.7 or later. 600 KB
disk space. GNU Shogi itself needs 1.2 MB RAM. The program comes with a
rules document, a set of openings, etc. GNU SHOGI is written by Matthias
Mutz. Kazuhiko Seki added a Mac graphical user interface.

Enjoy !

Pieter Stouten
