Game Courier's Table rendering method for drawing Square spaces now supports point-and-click movement. I have not added this feature to the other rendering methods or shapes yet. Here is how it works. First of all, make sure JavaScript works with Game Courier. When it is your turn to move, click on a piece. A border will appear around the piece. Then click on any other space, and Game Courier will submit your move as one from the first space you clicked on, marked by the border, to the second space you clicked on. You will then have the opportunity, as usual, to verify your move and send it to your opponent. If you click on a piece but decide to move a different piece instead, click it again to get rid of the border around it, then click another piece. Note that the point-and-click interface is very dumb. It does not know which pieces are yours, and it will let you move one piece on top of another piece. If your preset enforces rules, it will normally intercept any illegal moves, but if it doesn't, you should be careful.
