************************************************************
* Solo 1.0 (Jan 93) : Solitaire for Psion 3 *
************************************************************
This program may be freely distributed and is provided
without any form of warrenty.
Solo implements a number of variants on Solitaire,
the single player card game. It is my attempt to
create the most convoluted OPL program every written
by a single person.
Installation
************
Copy the "SOLO" directory into "\APP" directory on the
Psion.
On the "System" screen use "Install application" in the
"Apps" menu.
Press the <Tab> key to get a listing of the "\APP"
directory.
Select "\APP\SOLO\" to see the contents, once in "\APP\SOLO\"
select "SOLO.OPA", this will return you to the
"Install application" dialog.
If you now press the <Return> key Solo will be installed on
your "System" screen.
The Game
********
The game is the standard single player card game, build the
suit piles up, descending piles in alternate colours.
How to play
***********
The <Help> key should give enough of a hint about playing.
Other bits
**********
The source code is all in the "OPL" directory, however given
the fact that
1 It is more than 20k
2 It is in OPL
3 It was hacked together between meals over Christmas
I would suggest you only look at it if you are really interested.
Feel free to lift any good ideas I may have had.
Paying for it
*************
If you like the game send me a copy of your favorite Psion 3
program, if you REALLY like the game send me your second
favorite.
