Help: Game/New Game
+(Starts a new game, shuffling and dealing
+(all of the cards. Use this option at the
+%end of a game if you want to try your
+*luck again. Use it in the middle of a game
+'if you want to give up and start afresh
+'(by answering yes to the dialogue box).
+!Help: Game/Re-deal & Game/Give Up
+%If you run out of moves (or want some
++variety) you can use this option to re-deal
+)those cards not forming a sequence. After
+%two re-deals the menu item changes to
+)'Give Up' which will end the game showing
+%you the cards you scored points from.
Help: Game/High Scores
+(Montana will keep track of your greatest
+#achievements by holding your 5 best
+&scores. Selecting this option displays
+'the table, press Enter or Esc to remove
+%it. The high scores are saved to disk
when you exit Montana.
Help: Game/Exit Montana
++Simple one this. Choose this option to exit
+,the Montana application. A dialogue box will

to do!

+$Another route to this wonderful help
system.
Help: Help/About
+%Gives you details about the author of
+"this application. It also provides
+&information on how to register (if you
+ have registered then thank you).
Help: Moving cards
++You may only move a card into a hole if the
+)card to the left is one lower in the same
+,suit (e.g. 10S next to the 9S). A two can be
+(moved into any gap on the left hand side
+(and no card can be moved next to a King.
Help: Re-dealing
+*You have two chances to re-deal all of the
+)available cards (i.e. those not forming a
+)suit sequence starting from 2 on the left
+%hand side). These cards are gathered,
+(shuffled then delt and the aces removed.
Help: Scoring
+(Each card is worth its face value (2-10)
+(with J=11, Q=12 and K=13. You only score
+#with cards which have been arranged
+$correctly. A bonus may be awarded on
+%finishing the game making the maximum
score 400 points.
Help: Using the keyboard
+)Use the cursor keys to highlight the card
+'you wish to move. Press the spacebar or
+%enter key to try and move it. Psion+D
+(re-deals any free cards (up to 2 times).
