BridgeD V2.0 copyright 1992, is a demo of a game of Contract Bridge for
Macintosh computers. It is not copy protected and may be placed on a
hard disk. The demo of the game is copyright but freely distributable when
accompanied by this documentation. A continous playing version is available.
This demo plays for 15 minutes before resetting.
This game is just being introduced to the Macintosh. It has been through
many revisions on other platforms hence should be reliable. This version
is monochrome for Mac Classic, Plus, and SE monitors and is in color for Apple
Mac 13" color monitors.
This version uses 4 clubs exclusively as a slam bid invitation even when clubs
have been previously bid. Bidding instructions are included for
opening bids, 1st Replys to Openers, Rebids by opener and 2nd Reply bids..
A synopsis of the bidding and scoring rules is provided in the menus.
As usual any comments or revisions to improve the bidding or play are
welcome and will help guide future revisions.
A Replay capability permits replaying the last hand repeatedly. The
scoring and game continuity resume after replay(s) are completed.
This implementation as well as the continous playing version require
system 6.07 or later software and should have 200k of ram available.
The game has been under development for three years and is available
for the Macintosh, IBM and Amiga computers. This version 2.0 implementation
is considered completely reliable and has included the most requested
improvements from registered users. Additional suggestions are always
welcome and should be sent to:
