    Corewars description

    Corewars is a simulation game where a number of programs try to crash each other.

    Corewars is a simulation game where a number of programs try to crash each other. Corewars comes with a graphical user interface (GTK+) to display the running programs and statistics. Redcode is supported as well.

    Core Wars is a simulation game. A number of programs are loaded into a
    virtual machine and executed. The programs can to crash each other,
    manipulate other programs, overwrite as much memory as they can, etc...
    The "best" program is selected according to a scoring mechanism which
    involves the number of memory cells the program has overwritten, the
    number of other programs it has crashed and whether/when it crashed.

    Two different languages are supported. The one called "Corewars" is
    easy to learn. The second language, called "Redcode", is harder to learn but also more powerful.

    Requirements:

    · Glib 1.2.x
    · Gtk 1.2.x

    What's New in This Release:

    · changed division by zero handling to conform to the standard (Redcode)
    · added internal dump option to command line client
    · fixed bug in ZEROCHECK macro (Redcode)
