+.SH DESCRIPTION
+.PP
+The object of the children's card game
+.I fish
+is to accumulate `books' of 4 cards of equal rank.
+At each turn one player
+selects a card from his hand, and asks the other player for
+all cards of that rank.
+If the other player has some, he hands them all over
+and the first player makes another request.
+The turn ends when
+the second player has no card of the rank requested;
+he replies, `Go fish!'
+The first
+player then draws a card from the `pool' of undealt cards.
+If this is the card he had last requested, he draws again.
+.PP
+The ranks are called
+.LR a ,
+.LR 2 ,
+\&...,
+.LR 10 ,
+.LR j ,
+.LR q ,
+.LR k .
+Hitting
+return requests information about the state of the game.

+.L p
+as a first
+guess gets `pro' level play.
+.PP
+.I Canfield
+is a solitaire game.
