GoMoku Narabe (GOMOKU.EXE) is a Windows shareware
version of an ancient Japanese game.  But it is more.  It is also
an introduction to some interesting Japanese culture and 
provides tools to explore a fascinating and accessible area of Mathematics.  

GoMoku Narabe is written in Visual Basic 3.0.   As such it
requires that VBRUN300.DLL exists in your Windows System directory.	

I have a 'slick' install program that takes care of everything having
to do with installation but for file exchanges across BBSs 
it takes up too much room -- adding almost 300K to the files.  
So . . . to install GoMoku Narabe, please do the following:

1. Check that VBRUN300.DLL is in your Windows System directory.  If not,
   please download a copy ( there should be a copy on the BBS from which
   you downloaded GOMOKU.ZIP)

2. Create a directory GOMOKU

3. Copy the files GOMOKU.EXE and GOMOKU.HLP
   to this new GOMOKU directory.

4. Create a program manager icon for GOMOKU.EXE by adding it as a file
   in your GAMES program manager group.

That's it.

Thanks for using GoMoku Narabe.  I hope its challenging, fun, and 
educational at the same time!
