-This is XShogi version 1.3
---------------------------
-
-This program provides an XWindows interface to the Japanese Chess (Shogi)
-playing program GNU Shogi.  You have to create "gnushogi" from GNU Shogi
-(version 1.3).  Xshogi has been created by modifying XBoard 2.0 and XBoard 2.1
-by Tim Mann.  Xshogi was originally written by Matthias Mutz
-(mutz@fmi.uni-passau.de) but is now being maintained by me, Mike Vanier
-(mvanier@bbb.caltech.edu).  I would like to thank Matthias for passing the
-maintenance of this program over to me.
-
-For changes since the last version please read the file NEWS.  The most
-significant change is that xshogi has been merged into the gnushogi source
-tree, and it is now very easy to configure and build both programs at the same
-time.  In addition, support for the Internet Shogi Server has been dropped.
-There are now much better ways to play Shogi over the internet (such as
-JavaShogi), and the ISS support seemed to be only partial, so I decided (as
-the new maintainer) to keep things simple and just remove ISS support
-altogether.
-
-For creating xshogi read the file INSTALL in the top-level gnushogi
-directory.  
-
-If you determine bugs, please save the game, and rerun xshogi with the
--debug True option. Report the bug to me.  By the way, gnushogi (the shogi
-playing program used by xshogi) can produce a record of the game if you
-#define LIST_ON_EXIT in the file `gnushogi/opts.h'.
-
-In order to determine the options, try "xshogi -help".  A man page is also
-included. 
-
-You can give GNU Shogi more searching time by using the -tc option.  For
-example, "xshogi -tc 15" allows GNU Shogi to think 15 minutes for 40 moves.
-
-You can choose a western style piece set by invoking xshogi with -wps True.
-This can also be set in your .Xdefaults file or .Xresources file.  See the
-xshogi man page for more about X resources.
-
-In case of trouble, comments or suggestions for improvements you may contact me.
-Otherwise, enjoy the program :-)
