I am curious what the code would look like to tell Zillions that a piece that isn't next to any other piece orthgonally, can't move.

Roughly:

(define not-lonely?
(or (not-empty? n)
(not-empty? s)
(not-empty? e)
(not-empty? w))

...

( (verify (not-lonely?)) ...rest of move code...)

This is off the top of my head, so it's not tested---plus I'm sure I have too many/too few parenthesis....

Thanks for the help. I think I may get around to proceding to do my Dvonn/Focus hybrid. I think I may call it Foconn. Or Dvocus.
