   1 Here are the things that need to be done before releasing a single
   2 user version of the game, and how much effort I think they'll take
   3 (Simple = 1, Difficult = 9).  We also need to allocate time for user
   4 testing (to get feedback from people using it, and make changes based
   5 on their input), and of course debugging and smoothing out rough
   6 edges.
   7
   8 * keyboard commands: arrow, function keys (3)
   9   also need to disable autorepeat
  10 * save/restore overlay (5)
  11   write all overlay information into another file, like Glasgow.city.overlay
  12
  13 * print city dialog (6)
  14   need to implement printing function and control panel from scratch
  15 * help (8)
  16   must implement a help mechanism and put in lots of help
  17 * manual (9)
  18   need to re-write manual, and do new illustrations
  19   must have a framemaker license to do this
  20
  21 We could probably come out with a solid beta release without printing,
  22 help, or a manual.
