   HISTORY
-------------

- Version 1.1 (March 2000)
  Added three new kinds of billiard
  games: Goriziana, Carom and 3_Balls.
  The variant of "Goriziana" present in
  the previous versions is now called
  "Goriziana (Bar)", because it was not
  compliant to the official rules.
  The actual Goriziana instead uses the
  international rules.
  The colour of the balls has been
  changed to apply the official rules.
  In "Boccette" now the bumper shot
  doubles the score.
  The menus have been redesigned.

- Version 1.0b (April 1998)
  Added .pif file and icon, to add the
  program at windows Start menu.
  Info file in HTML format.

- Version 1.0 (October 1996)
  The first version of this game!

 REGISTERING 
-------------

At the moment this software is totally
free, however its creation required
many months of work, so if you like
this game and use it often, you should
think about registering, by sending me a
little amount of money of 5 Euro, with
your address (e-mail or snail-mail).
In this way, you'll receive the future
versions of Biliardo, and I'll be able
to develop new games and programs.

My address is :

 Marco Chiesi
 Via Roma 19
 42034 Casina (RE)
 ITALY
