Novell Network Tic-Tac-Toe This program is my way of learning IPX for Novell. As such it was only meant to be a learning tool. Much of the coding is quite sloppy. Because I don't have the official Novell library, I wrote my own. It should have the same C calling conventions as the standard library. All code was written to compile under Microsoft C/C++ 7.0 and Microsoft Assembler 6.0. No attempt was made to get it to compile under any other compilers. By the way, I use four space tabs. The program itself, TTT.EXE, is all that is needed to run. In fact, you don't even need to be logged on to run it. However, IPX must be loaded beforehand, since IPX is the transport used. You do need more than one machine connected on the same network segment in order to play. The program currently cannot cross bridges or thru servers. TTT does have a few command-line options. "-n" allows you to change your name. For example, 'ttt -n Dude' would make you known as Dude. Spaces can also be in the name if you use double-quotes, i.e., 'ttt -n "The Dude"'. There is also the debug option "-d", which displays nifty debugging info. Once running, TTT should show you the other available players, with a number assigned to each player. Press the number of the player that you wish to play. You can also cheat and let the computer play for you by pressing C. Another letter you can use at that point is F. That puts you into Friendly mode. In Friendly Mode, whenever somebody requests to play with you, you'll automatically start play with them. Using C and F together is like having a tic-tac-toe server.
