    Welcome to TicTacToe!

    TicTacToe>

Typing `help` or `exit` will perform those actions. The help screen looks like this:

    TicTacToe> help

    Below are the list of commands. To see more information, type 'help '

        help              Shows this help prompt

        start       Starts the game with the a board the size of 

        move        When in a game, makes a move at the ,  position

To start a game, you must first decide how big of a board you want to play on. All boards are perfect squares, so you only need enter one number. To start a new game, simply use the `start` command:

    TicTacToe> start 3

          1   2   3

       ╭───┭───┭───╮

    1  ┃ _ ┃ _ ┃ _ ┃

    2  ┃ _ ┃ _ ┃ _ ┃

    3  ┃ _ ┃ _ ┃ _ ┃

       ╰───┵───┵───╯

    TicTacToe>

Once started, you may use the `move` command to place a move. The `move` command takes its parameters seprated by spaces in the format `move x y`. To move to position (1,2) where X is 1 and Y is 2 (X being the horizontal axis and Y being the vertical axis), type the following:

    TicTacToe> move 1 2

You will see the CPU thinking for a brief moment, and then the board will be redrawn.

    Moving CPU to 2 2

          1   2   3

       ╭───┭───┭───╮

    1  ┃ _ ┃ X ┃ _ ┃

    2  ┃ _ ┃ O ┃ _ ┃

    3  ┃ _ ┃ _ ┃ _ ┃

       ╰───┵───┵───╯

    TicTacToe>

Continue making moves until either you or the CPU win the game!

    TicTacToe> move 1 3

    Of course, you beat the stupid computer... Start a new game with 'start 3'

          1   2   3

       ╭───┭───┭───╮

    1  ┃ X ┃ X ┃ X ┃

    2  ┃ _ ┃ O ┃ _ ┃

    3  ┃ _ ┃ O ┃ _ ┃

       ╰───┵───┵───╯
