-- PEXESO --

-- Quick howto --

Licence:
  GPL. If you don't know, see COPYING.

Requirements:
  Some Java machine and compiler. Works (not perfectly but OK) with Kaffe.
  And ant for compilation.
  I hope no special libraries are needed.

Download:
  I'll skip this. You already have it :-)

Compile:
  If you have Java from sun:
  ant java

  If you have some Kaffe or other "Java" you may try 
  ant Kaffe

  It is possible to compile using sablevm.
  make sablevm

  It will compile all sources, create documentation from sources .jar file.
  You may take the jar file from ./dist/pexeso.jar and move it anywhere you
  want to. 
  
Run:
  To run the jar type:  java -jar pexeso.jar
  Or you may use ./pexeso.sh or ./kaffe.sh from root of installation (not as root)
  For sablevm use ./sablevm

  
Rules of the game:
  You task is to find two same pictures. For finding two same you get one point.
  In one turn, you may reveal two pictures and then you should to remember them.
  If you find two same pictures you play again.
  The winner is who finds more couples.
  
About AI:
  The game has several computer opponents. They may be selected in new game dialog.
  Note that AI isn't cheating. First one is weakling and last two are quiet tough.

Beast Game Mode:
  Don't turn on this mode unless you are able to play normal version. In this mode
  pictures are randomly mixed during the game. So the game result is more random.

Switch Turn Mode:  
  Best is to try and you'll see. When you reveal two pictures, they are swapped.

Themes:
  Themes may be defined using simlpe XML - under construction :-)

Girls theme:
  If you want to have girls theme, all you need is to run script girls.sh, wait
  and uncomment line  238 in file NewGameDlg.java. (uncoment means remove // at the
  beginning of the file)
  You also need some jpegutils: jpegtopnm, pnmscale and pnmtojpeg.


Have fun!
