Patience is a collection of solitaire card games for the Palm Pilot.
Version 2.3 improves the UI by animating cards to track the pen.  It's
also the first release built with the prc tools provided by Jeff Dionne
for Linux.  A vast improvement over the Metrowerks environment on the
Macintosh.  I also added attribution for Tabby Cat and the rules
of the game to Rick Holzgrafe, the author of Solitaire Till Dawn
for the Macintosh.  Sorry, no new games this release.

The Games

	Aces High
This is a very simple solitaire, infrequently winnable and
pretty much determined by the deal rather than the play.

	Calculation
Keeps your mind working with modulo 13 arithmetic

*	Golf
Count up and down, try to end with fewer than four cards showing.

*	Klondike
The classic; in draw-three style (sorry, no Vegas rules)

*	Montana
Line up all four suits from 2 to King.  Tap empty spaces to highlight
the card which goes there.  Tap cards to highlight where they go.

*	Spider
My favorite double-deck solitaire; more playable in version 2.0, but still
cramped.

*	Spiderette
A single-deck version of Spider.  It seems to be less affected by skill than
spider.

*	Tabby Cat
Similar to Spiderette, but suits don't matter, and you get this fine
tail to play with.

*	Towers
Similar to FreeCell, but a bit easier to play.

*	Yukon
Looks like Klondike, but is more complicated.

The Play

All of the games have the same controls; most of the time tapping
on a column will move some cards in a useful manner.  When that doesn't
work, drag a card where you want it to go.  Hints and 256-level undo
are always available.

Patience is made available without fee.  If you have a favorite solitaire
that you think will work well on the Pilot, send along a description of the
game and I'll see about incorporating it into the next release.
