Created by accident, all who find you will destroy you. Survive,
grow, and learn. Only then can you escape. Endgame: Singularity
is a simulation of a true AI. Go from computer to computer, pursued
by the entire world. Keep hidden, and you might have a chance.
No changes since 3.3.18 except for the version number. This is because
the server and web site of gokgs.com only have one common version
number. Nevertheless, the update is useful because it avoids a warning
about "old client software" at startup.
Version 1.2.6:
* WML engine
* fix [variables] not working properly in scenarios (bug #9342)
* language and i18n:
* updated translations: British English, Danish, Finnish, Spanish, Swedish
* updated DejaVuSans font to version 2.18
* user interface:
* Enable "Save Game" and "View Chat Log" menu entries in replay mode.
* Add an additional line below the minimap in the "Multiplayer->Create game"
screen that displays the size of the selected map. (patch #776 by uso)
* Show the (possibly bogus) GPV and fog settings of games with "Use map
settings" on in a darker font. (patch #771 by uso)
* misc:
* added some extra headers for the upcomming gcc 4.3 (debian bug #417764)
* added a .desktop entry for the editor so that it is shown in the kde/gnome
menu
* the unit name generation could with different locales call get_random() a
different number of times. This lead to different names and traits.
Changed to call random a fixed number of times which fixes the traits.
binary-only packages that require binary "emulation" on the native
operating system. Please see pkgsrc/mk/emulator/README for more
details.
* Teach the plist framework to automatically use any existing
PLIST.${EMUL_PLATFORM} as part of the default PLIST_SRC definition.
* Convert all of the binary-only packages in pkgsrc to use the
emulator framework. Most of them have been tested to install and
deinstall correctly. This involves the following cleanup actions:
* Remove use of custom PLIST code and use PLIST.${EMUL_PLATFORM}
more consistently.
* Simplify packages by using default INSTALL and DEINSTALL scripts
instead of custom INSTALL/DEINSTALL code.
* Remove "SUSE_COMPAT32" and "PKG_OPTIONS.suse" from pkgsrc.
Packages only need to state exactly which emulations they support,
and the framework handles any i386-on-x86_64 or sparc-on-sparc64
uses.
* Remove "USE_NATIVE_LINUX" from pkgsrc. The framework will
automatically detect when the package is installing on Linux.
Specific changes to packages include:
* Bump the PKGREVISIONs for all of the suse100* and suse91* packages
due to changes in the +INSTALL/+DEINSTALL scripts used in all
of the packages.
* Remove pkgsrc/emulators/suse_linux, which is unused by any
packages.
* cad/lc -- remove custom code to create the distinfo file for
all supported platforms; just use "emul-fetch" and "emul-distinfo"
instead.
* lang/Cg-compiler -- install the shared libraries under ${EMULDIR}
instead of ${PREFIX}/lib so that compiled programs will find
the shared libraries.
* mail/thunderbird-bin-nightly -- update to latest binary
distributions for supported platforms.
* multimedia/ns-flash -- update Linux version to 9.0.48 as the
older version is no longer available for interactive fetch.
* security/uvscan -- set LD_LIBRARY_PATH explicitly so that
it's not necessary to install library symlinks into
${EMULDIR}/usr/local/lib.
* www/firefox-bin-flash -- update Linux version to 9.0.48 as the
older version is no longer available for interactive fetch.

Hex is a two-player perfect information game with very easy rules. But
like in other games with simple rules, playing well isn't that easy.
Six is one of the strongest Hex-playing programs of the world.
