Bring in the 4.4 Lite games directory, modulo man page changes and segregation
of the x11 based games. I'm not going to tag the originals with bsd_44_lite and do this in two stages since it's just not worth it for this collection, and I've got directory renames to deal with that way. Bleah. Submitted by: jkh

+.SH NAME
+fish \- play ``Go Fish''
+.SH SYNOPSIS
+.ft B
+fish [\-p]
+.ft R
+.SH DESCRIPTION
+.I Fish
+is the game
+.IR "Go Fish" ,
+a traditional children's card game.
+.PP
+The computer deals the player and itself seven cards, and places
+the rest of the deck face-down (figuratively).
+The object of the game is to collect ``books'', or all of the members
+of a single rank.
+For example, collecting four 2's would give the player a ``book of
+2's''.
+.PP
+The options are as follows:
+.TP
+\-p
+Professional mode.
+.PP
+The computer makes a random decision as to who gets to start the
+game, and then the computer and player take turns asking each other
+for cards of a specified rank.
+If the asked player has any cards of the requested rank, they give
+them up to the asking player.
+A player must have at least one of the cards of the rank they request
+in their hand.
+When a player asks for a rank of which the other player has no
+cards, the asker is told to ``Go Fish!''.
+Then, the asker draws a card from the non-dealt cards.
+If they draw the card they asked for, they continue their turn, asking
+for more ranks from the other player.
+Otherwise, the other player gets a turn.
+.PP
+When a player completes a book, either by getting cards from the
+other player or drawing from the deck, they set those cards aside and
+the rank is no longer in play.
+.PP
+The game ends when either player no longer has any cards in their hand.
+The player with the most books wins.
+.PP
+.I Fish
+provides instructions as to what input it accepts.
+.SH BUGS
+The computer cheats only rarely.
