unfinished project - pentago
Pentago is a board game of skill.
The winner is the first player with 5 marbles in a row.
Here is a description of pentago on wiki.

I started making a program that plays pentago
but finishing it seems to be beyond my ability.
It is not likely that I will do anything more on this project.
Mostly because of lack of ability.
Partly because of lack of interest. (It's only a game)
So if anyone wants to take over this project, you may.

Among the improvements it needs to be really good are:
1. It needs to think faster so it can search deeper and play better.
(This would involve a major change in the program, using bits.)
2. Marbles would look better than Xs and Os.
After you do a professional quality job on it, you might want to
post it on freshmeat.

BTW, whoever takes over the pentago project, if you want it to work
on Ubuntu and Debian, you will have to get wxEuphoria v0.10 happening
or else use wxEuphoria v0.9 with 2 lines commented out in wxEuphoria.e
and you will have to explain that stuff to downloaders.
