XAWELE(6)			 Games Manual			     XAWELE(6)

NAME
       xawele -	a strategy game	for X

SYNOPSIS
       xawele or awelewish -f xawele

DESCRIPTION
       The  game  of Awele is a	popular	african	game, also known as "Sungo" or
       "Ubao". It is made of a wooden board with 12 holes containing some kind
       of stones. The aim is to	capture	as many	stones as possible. There  ex-
       ist  varieties  of rules. I implemented the one I know, which is	one of
       the most	popular	(in Ivory Coast	at least).

       xawele is a Tcl/Tk script, with some routines written in	C. The	inter-
       preter is awelewish.

       There is	no command line	options.

PLAYING
       Select  your  opponent's	 level	using  the "level" menu. Rules are ex-
       plained in english (select rules	in the "misc" menu) and	in french (se-
       lect regles).  Button 1 on a non	empty square plays this	square;	button
       2 shows where the last stone is dropped if you choose this square.  You
       have the	possibility to undo one	move.
