NUMBRIX

NUMBRIX is a numbrix solver written in Common Lisp for CAP4621 (Artifical Intelligence, Fall 2008) at the University of Florida.
My partner (Brian Ethier) and I were both new to Common Lisp, so the code is non-idiomatic, decidedly un-functional, and downright messy.
Enter at your own risk. :-)
The majority of it was written within a span of two days, so I'm sure there's a lot of code that'll make experienced lispers writhe in pain.
REQUIREMENTS:
* Common Lisp
* clisp (if you'd like to compile it down to bytecode):
http://clisp.cons.org/
INSTALLATION/USAGE:
To run in clisp:
1) Open up the clisp interpreter (`clisp`)
2) Type:
(compile-file "numbrix.lisp")
3) Type:
(load "numbrix.fas")
4) The main program is called 'numbrix'. To run it, type:
(numbrix)
5) To use the board from Dankel's project specification, you can either enter
"oct20.board" or no value at all when prompted for a filename.
IMPORTANT: The tournament boards are named #.board, where # is the number specified
in the tournament dataset document.
5) For actual gameplay instructions, type 'h' at the move prompt in the game.
For automatic (computer) play: press 'a' at the move prompt.
NOTE: When the board is complete and the solution is incorrect, the board state is
reset (set back to the original configuration).
Sample boards can be found in boards/.
