RUMMY 500 (Version 2.0) - README.TXT
====================================
Rummy 500 is an exciting variation of the card game known as Gin Rummy. You
play against the computer, which can be set to use a number of different
skill levels. At expert level, the computer is hard to beat and provides a
very challenging game. Rummy 500 is believed to be the first shareware Gin
Rummy game available for Microsoft Windows.
Customizable features include:
Colors
Card backs
Screen resolution (600x480 or 800x600)
AutoMouse (moves mouse pointer automatically between deck and hand)
Opponent skill level
The only installation requirements are that Rummy500.exe and Rummy500.hlp
reside in the same directory, and that VBRUN300.DLL and CMDIALOG.VBX are
present in your path (typically in the windows or windows\system directory).
Rummy 500 is shareware, and is fully functional. You may evaluate this
program for a period of 21 days after which you must register it or remove it
