SPECIAL NOTES
-------------

 1. The rstat command will show the distribution of the ratings of all
    players, it is possible to use the "crstat" command to see the computer
    players' rating distribution, and the "hrstat" command to see the human
    players' rating distribution.

 2. By setting the interface variable graph it is possible to modify the
    output of the rstat command so that graphical interfaces and bots will
    not need to parse the distribution itself.
