KCHECKERS(6)
π NAME π
kcheckers β it's the checkers boardgame, bestie. That's it, that's the whole name section. π
β¨ SYNOPSIS β¨
kcheckers
yeah that's literally the entire synopsis. just run it. no flags. icon behaviour tbh.
π¦ DESCRIPTION π¦
okay so kcheckers is a Qt version of the classic boardgame "checkers", which is also known as "draughts". like, same game, different name depending on where you're from, iykyk. π
and the way that it has features?? girl, let me tell you:
- Built-in checkers engine. π
- Beginner, Novice, Average, Good, Expert and Master levels of skill.
- Several themes of the board. π¨
- Portable Draughts Notation database format support. π
- Saving, loading and restarting of game. πΎ
- Auto change of the men's color. π
- Multiple Undos/Redos. β©οΈ
- Optional numeration of the board. π’
- Internationalization support (English, German, Russian and French). π
not me listing nine whole features like it's a group chat poll. but fr fr, they're all in there. no cap. π«Ά
π GENERAL OPTIONS π
bestieβ¦ this section is empty. like, genuinely empty. the original page just puts the heading here and then dips. no options listed, no flags documented, nothing. so i'm not gonna invent any β that's the one thing i refuse to do. π
so likeβ¦ treat this heading as vibes only. if you want options, check the app itself, because this manpage is not the one. π
π AUTHOR π
kcheckers was written by Andi Peredri <andi@ukr.net> and Artur Wiebe <wibix@gmx.de>, and it's released under the conditions of the GNU General Public License. π
want further details? go poke the application's "About" dialog, or read the file LICENSE that comes supplied with the source code. both of those have the receipts. β¨
and that's the whole page, bestie. the footer had a link that got cut off mid-word β http://sourceforge.net/project... β and a date of 22 Nov 2006, and it belongs to the manual section KCHECKERS(6). so there you go: sourceforge-adjacent, vintage 2006, section 6. iconic era, honestly. π«ΆπΈ
