ReadMe File for Tetris
Michael Irani

This program lets the user play Tetris.  The user's score is shown 
at the top of the screen, and whenever the player is successful in 
accumulating points, by filling up a line the score is incremented
by 10. There are seven objects and all necessary state changes are
accounted for.  For example the line object can be a vertical line 
or a horizontal line. Simply by pressing the up arrow this changes
is made.The down arrow brings the piece down at a faster rate. The 
right arrow brings it to the right and the left arrow brings it to 
the left. If a line is filled the lines above it move down one row. 
To start the game The player clicks on Game and then on New Game (
the player could have also pressed control then N).At the new game
prompt the player is given the choice of how many rows and columns
he/she would like and what level he/she would like to start on.The
player also has the oppurtunity  to bring up the options menu from 
the New Game window so that he/she can set the color of the pieces
and the random settings.Once the game is started, as stated before 
the player uses the right,  down,  and left arrow keys to move the 
piece in a direction,  and the up arrow to change the state of the 
piece.  The player can look at the high scores table, either by 
pressing control then B or by clicking on game then best scores,to 
see the five top scores by players.  The player can also pause the 
game while playing by either pressing the control button and then 
P or clicking on the Game tab and then clicking on Pause. An
appropriate message pops up in the middle of the game window show-
ing that the game is now paused.  As stated before the player has 
an options menu.  The player accesses this menu by either clicking 
on the Options Menu and then clicking Object Settings or pressing
control then S.  The player can set a certain color to each piece, 
or set a piece to the wacky color setting, which is a setting that 
the color of the piece changes randomly every screen refresh.  The
next option is setting the Random Setting. This setting allows the
user to decide how often each piece should come down.  If just the 
Line Piece was desired the player could set all the other pieces to
zero and that piece to one, which would in effect have only the line
piece appear. In the help tab there is a How to Play dialog and an 
about dialog. The how to play dialog explains how to play this Tetris
game. The about dialog tells the user the programmer and a form of 
contact.
