1.1     ! root        1:        To play backgammon, you must type the numbers of the points from
        !             2: which pieces are to be moved.  For example, if the roll was '2  6', typing
        !             3: '12 15' will move a piece from point 12 two spaces to point 14 and a piece
        !             4: from point 15 six spaces to point 21.  If the moves must be made in the
        !             5: opposite order, you must prepend the first number with a minus ('-').  Thus,
        !             6: typing '-12 15' will move a piece from point 12 six spaces and a piece from
        !             7: point 15 two spaces.
        !             8:        If you want to move a single piece several times the sequence of
        !             9: points from which it is to be moved must be typed.  For example, if the
        !            10: roll is '3  5', typing '14  17' will move a piece from point 14 to point
        !            11: 17 and then to point 22.  If a double is rolled, you should enter four numbers.
        !            12:        Brown pieces that have been removed from the board after being hit
        !            13: by white are on point 0 and must be brought in before any other moves can be
        !            14: made.  White pieces that are hit are removed to point 25.
        !            15:        Illegal or excessive moves are detected, however if you choose to skip
        !            16: part or all of your turn you may do so.
        !            17:        Type a '?' when you are asked for your move and a list of available
        !            18: actions will be printed.
        !            19:        Good luck!!!
