Changes for version 0.02 - 2026-10-10
- Point at the card you mean: the arrow keys walk your hand and the line under it says whether the card takes the trick, what the trick is worth, and what that puts you on. The moves that are not cards keep their own keys.
- The card you drew at the end of the last trick is drawn in a heavier frame.
- Fix: --level took any number. The variant, the mode and the seat were all refused; the level was not.
- Fix: every drawn row ended in the padding that keeps the next card in line.
- Fix: the hand's label row padded by the length of a string that already held colour codes, so with colour on, which is the default on a terminal, the labels did not line up under their cards.
- The ten is drawn as 10 rather than T. T is the engine's rank letter, which keeps a card id two characters; it was never a thing to show a player. Both spellings are still accepted.
- Fix: an answer or a refusal landed on the prompt's own line off a terminal.
