NAME
       row4t - vertical board game: Four in a row

SYNOPSIS
       row4g [Options]
       row4t [Options]

DESCRIPTION
       This  is  a vertical board game.  The program row4g is a graphical pro
       gram. It needs SDL2.  The program row4t is a text  based  program.   It
       eventually needs a terminal (depending on the operating system).

       At  the  start  you are asked for the number of players.  Choose "2" to
       play with a friend, or "1" if you don't have any friends.

       The grit is set up vertically and you can drop chips  into  the  slots.
       Your goal is to get four chips in a row. This can be vertically or hor
       izontally or diagonally. The game can also end with a  draw,  when  all
       columns are full and nobody has won.

       You  can  use  the keyboard or on most systems the mouse to control the
       program.

       Have fun!
