- *1 starting:
- When you first start the program, you will be asked for the
- parameters for a new game. Make the choices that you want, then click
- on OK.
-
- Dificulty: This is how hard the computer will play.
-
- Practice mode: If the box is checked, the computer will return every shot,
- and it will not keep the score. If the box is unchecked, the
- computer will miss a certain percentage of the balls depending
- on the dificulty level.
-
- Play to: Type in the number of points you want to play to. After either
- you or the computer reaches this number, the game ends and again
- you will be asked for the parameters for a new game.

- *2 playing
-
- After clicking OK, a new game begins. Move the paddle (the big
- circle around the mouse pointer) to where you want to serve from, and click
- the mouse. The ball appears and flies towards the other side. It will
- most likely be hit back, but if it doesn't, click again. (In wimp mode, it
- may take a few tries before the ball is returned.)
- When the ball comes back to you, move the paddle to where the ball
- is going to hit. If you don't hit the ball right away, it will turn blue.
- If you still don't hit the ball, it will go past you, and the computer will
- win the point.
- If the paddle is over the ball when it gets far enough back, it
- will be hit back (you don't have to click the mouse this time). Keep
- doing this until either you or the computer misses. Then, click again
- to start an other point. (If the ball moves very slow on your computer,
- and/or stops when you move the mouse, see the help section on slow
- computers.)
