CONCENTRATION SOLITAIRE
-----------------------
Ver 1.0, Jan 1992
By Stephen and Laura Murphy
Tech Notes:
Requires - Windows 3.x running in Standard or Enhanced mode
Requires - VBRUN100.DLL runtime module available from most public BBS's if it is
not included here.
Requires - Video resolution of 800 x 600 or higher. Due to the size of the
playing cards and the fact that so many are dealt out at the same time, there
is no room for them all at lower resolutions. Maybe in the next version of the
game, we will scale the cards so they work on lower resolution monitors. The game
has not been tested at higher resolutions than 800 x 600 but we can't see any
reason it shouldn't work properly.
Included Files:
README.TXT The file you are reading
CONSOL.EXE Main program file
STATUS.DLL Status bar addition by Ed Staffin (available on CompuServe SBAR2.ZIP)
VBCARDS.DLL Playing cards by Richard R. Sands (available on CompuServe CARD10.ZIP)
Running the Program:
Assuming all the above files are included in the same directory
simply select RUN "CONSOL.EXE" from Program Manager or double click on "CONSOL.EXE"
from File Manager. "CONSOL.EXE" may be added to a program group in which case
it will appear with it's own icon. Running the program from a floppy disk will result
in very poor performance since there is a great deal of info passed from the DLL's to
Windows while the program is running. It runs great from a hard disk or ram disk.
Note:
Concentration Solitaire uses your Windows Clipboard while it is running. This is
no big deal unless you have the only copy of your favorite BMP currently sitting in
Clipboard. The point is, if you have something in Clipboard you want to save, do it
first before you play the game.
If you have any questions, comments or suggestions we are available on
