Wolpers is an Othello (Reversi) player.  The big version of this
program is actually installed on the internet Othello server <ios>
at faust.uni-paderborn.de (port 5000), and has played more than
10000 games against players from everywhere.
The Amiga version is a little bit smaller (no learning routines,
shallow searches...), but should beat every silicon player
available on this computer at the moment.
