 The object of Far Beyond game is to manoeuvre the falling
 pieces so that when they stack up, the coloured blocks form
 lines of three or more of the same colour vertically,
 horizontally or diagonally.  When this happens, those blocks
 disappear and the stack collapses and a new piece starts
 falling.

 If, when the stack collapses, new lines of the same colour
 occur, the stack will re-collapse.

 As well as keys for LEFT and RIGHT movement of the piece,
 there are two special keys.  The ROTATE key causes the order
 of the colours in the piece to cycle their positions, and the
 DROP key causes the piece to quickly drop into place where it
 is.  This facility has two advantages - you don't have to wait
 for the block to fall, and you get more points if you position
 and drop as soon as possible. 



  Far Beyond Keys:
 

  Key                 Effect
   

  4 or               Left
  6 or               Right

  5 or 8 or          Rotates piece

  2 or <space> or    Drops piece onto stack

  P                   Pause

  S                   Sound on/off


 Remember... if you want to use the numeric keypad,
             make sure NUM LOCK is on
