Installation:
To install Igo from this disk to another, type:
INSTALL SRC DST
Where SRC is the source disk (for example A:) and DST is the
destination disk (for example C:). If you just type INSTALL,
the program will be copied from the A: disk to the C: disk.
Install makes a directory called IGO on the destination disk
and copies all files from the source disk to the IGO directory
on the destination disk.
Copying and Distribution:
Igo is copyright 1991 David Fotland. The go tutorial is
Copyright 1991 Roger White. The purpose of Igo is to
help as many people as possible learn how to play Go,
so we encourage you to make and distribute an unlimited
number of copies of this program, provided you include all
the files from the original disk without altering them
in any way.
If your disk is missing any of the following files you can
get a new master disk from Ishi Press International for just
a shipping and handling charge.
The following files are included on the distribution disk:
egab19.bmp grain.bmp install2.bat tanb9.bmp vgaface.bmp
egab9.bmp igo.exe msherc.com tanw19.bmp vgago.bmp
egago.bmp igo.ico patterns.dat tanw9.bmp vgasmgo.bmp
egaw19.bmp igoherc.bat readme vgab19.bmp vgaw19.bmp
egaw9.bmp install.bat tanb19.bmp vgab9.bmp vgaw9.bmp
go.rul
On Line Help:
Each menu option is explained in a help screen. You can get
help by pressing F1 at any time except during the go tutorial.
On the main playing screen, press any key to make the menu
appear (it is under the Japanese character for go).
Hercules users:
You must run the driver program "msherc.com" before running
Igo. Due to a Microsoft bug, if you do not do so your
machine may crash when you run Igo. You have 3 options:
1) Run Igo by typing "igoherc" instead of "igo".
Igoherc is a DOS batch file that runs msherc, then Igo.
2) Type the command "msherc" yourself before the first time
you run Igo (but you must then run msherc again each time you
boot your machine).
3) If you have installed Igo on your hard disk you can add
the line "\igo\msherc" to your autoexec.bat file. This will
install the hercules driver every time your machine boots up.
Note that this will leave less memory available for other
applications. Msherc uses about 6 Kbytes of memory.
Memory Usage:
Igo requires 423 Kbytes of memory to run at all. The pattern
database requires another 21 Kbytes (444 Kb total). Additional
memory is used for the graphic bitmaps, but these are not
required for proper program operation. You can use the "chkdsk"
or "mem" (DOS 5.0) command to see how much available memory you
have on your machine. If you don't have enough memory available
check your autoexec.bat file and config.sys file for drivers and
TSR (terminate and stay resident) programs that you don't need.
Be sure to back up your autoexec.bat and config.sys files before
you make any changes.
Microsoft Windows 3.0:
A graphic icon is provided for Windows 3.0 users called igo.ico.
To install the program for operation under Windows: from program
manager select File, New. Select "Program Item" and push
the OK button. Enter the name of the program "Igo", and the path
name "c:\igo\igo.exe" then select "Change Icon". Enter the file
name "c:\igo\igo.ico" as the icon file name. Push the OK
buttons. The program icon now appears as a small go board in the
program group that was selected.
If you have VGA graphics and are an advanced user you can
improve the graphic performance by creating a pif and turning
off "monitor ports" in the advanced screen. (See the "More About
Applications" chapter in the Windows manual for details.) Igo does
not use EMS, XMS, or HMA, and does not require "Retain video memory".
Disk usage:
If you are short on disk space you might be able to delete some
files to save space. If you will not be using VGA mode you can
delete the VGA graphic files (GRAIN.BMP and VGA*.BMP). If you
will not be using EGA you can delete the EGA graphic files
(EGA*.BMP). If you will not be using Tandy graphics you can
delete the tandy graphic files (TAN*.BMP). If you will not be
using Hercules graphics you can delete MSHERC.COM. If you do not need
the go rules tutorial you can delete the file GO.RUL.
If you delete files off your hard disk be sure you save the
original disk since you must copy all the files if you make
copies for other people.
