klondike solitaire, NO X11, ASCII only
 
Many years ago on my FBSD and Linux boxen, i had the source for an ASCII version of klondike solitair. it was good for my dislocated shoulder and i could use it for breaks both at home and on my Sun computers at work.

i cannot find it to save my hide, so if any of you guys on this forum remember and have the C src, would you give a shout out?

tx in advance.

no-joy on ASCII-only solitaire
 
Thanks, guys. It was worth a couple hours-plus of hunting around, but nada. the closest i came was the hacker in .nl, but the klondike source was missing. i've asked if he can find the src code and email it my way.

gary

(I *know* i left it on my 90mhz tower that i had in 1995. ...but. oh-well :-)

EDIT::

Sorry, but i got tty-*foobar to built. BUT: it fails when i have say:

10H 7C
9S 6D
8D

and try to mmove the 7 of clubs beneaath the 8 of diamonds. i am using the spacebar to mark and move. the open window, has the instructions. ---this is veryy much fancier than then simple 7D [7 of diamonnds] that i remember from the mid 90s.

Can anybody clue me in.>.? i dont mind beeing able to usse the arrow keys. my FBSD box with a plain keyboard either had no arrows or they werent in the switch(ch){} ... and i didnt want to figure out how to use them. ANYWAY, it's almost working....
