I see (I had supposed you to be so rich that you didn't know what a
penny was worth :-). I was just thinking, if it's a problem (and maybe
it isn't) why not multiply everything by 100 so that you are dealing
with integers?

While I'm writing, may I ask you a question about GNU Backgammon? Each
time I start it up I have to set the parameters (modifications of player
settings, tutor mode on or off, etc) anew because it doesn't remember my
choice between sessions. Do you know if there is some way to get it to
remember?
