For the UPteenth time I have tried to send mail to someone who requested it only for some mail server along the way to say that his node did not exist! The only alternative is to send the mail arround the whole world to reach this poster. Here is the original message: ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- From: comp.sources.misc To: @[.comp.sources.misc]NEWS.DIS Subj: Source for Solitaire Posted by: decwrl!decvax!ucbvax!husc6!necntc!ncoast!allbery Organization: Approved: allbery@ncoast.UUCP X-Archive: comp.sources.misc/8706/1 Enclosed is the source for a solitaire game written in the Icon Programming Language. One of the interesting things about this version of solitaire is that it will take over and play on it's own. I call it auto pilot mode. The documentation for the program is in a comment block at the top of the source. Since Icon is not "yet" a mainstream language I figured misc would be the place to post this. If you want more info on Icon send me some mail. Icon is available for MS-DOS, ATARI ST GEMDOS, UNIX, VMS and a number of other systems. Last I heard it was included on the BSD distribution tape. It's running on almost all implementations of SVR2 and Xenix too. It's a bit large to post but I can send you an address at the University of Arizona where you can obtain Icon for the cost of media and postage. It's fully supported by the CS Department at the University of Arizona as The Icon Project.
