Chapter 6. Menu Reference

Drawing moves is explained under Rules of the Game. The buttons in the toolbar have the same meaning as entries in the Game or Edit menu.

The Game Menu

Game->New (Ctrl+N)

Starts a new game even if a game is currently in play.

Game->Stop Search (S)

When the computer is thinking, his depth search is interrupted and he draws the best move he has found so far.

Game->Take Back (PgUp)

Take back your previous move. Two (!) moves are undone: the opponents move and your last move. So it's your turn again. 100 moves are remembered; so don't hesitate to take back moves until you are at the beginning of the game (faster with the F2 key). When in Modify mode (see Edit->Modify below), decrement move number of this position.

Game->Forward (PgDown)

Only useful in Modify mode: Increment move number of this position.

Game->Hint (H)

A hint for your next move is shown. Only possible if you play at level normal or above, the move number is 2 or greater and you have not undone your move.

Game->Network Play (N)

If this toggle is switched on, the application is in Network Mode.

Game->Quit (Ctrl+Q)

Quits Kenolaba.
