To install tourney:
1) unpack the archive into a directory
2) type 'make'
3) move the executable (tourney) into where it's going to reside
4) tourney needs to be run from the same directory every time, as
this is the working directory. Go to the directory from which
tourney will be run.
5) type 'mkdir players' -- players in the directory in which all
the entries are kept, as well as a couple of other files.
Now, tourney is ready to run.
NOTE:
tourney will create a file in the current directory called "standings"
every time a score list is created. Be sure that you don't have any files
of that name that you don't want overwritten.
CUSTOMIZATION:
The scoring style can be modified so that points-per-round can be
awarding differently (read the man pages for more detail on what
tourney does as is). To change points per round, the "points[]"
array on line 51 of tourney.c will need to be changed.
Also, I've used "West", "East", "Midwest" and "Southeast" as
region names. These can be changed if you like as well. Just
keep in mind the order. the finalist from region #0 is assumed
to play the finalist from region #1, etc., so don't try to change
the order, just the names. the region names are on line 54 of tourney.c
RE-RUNNING A TOURNAMENT:
Unfortunately, starting over from scratch for a new tournament is not
yet a menu option. To do this, just remove everything in the
'players' directory, as well as the file 'teams' in the working directory.
Now, you're ready to go!
