This is an implementation of the Golf and Putt-Putt

solitaire card games for up to four players. Wikipedia

considers this one of the solitaire games most affected by

skill. This implementation has undo/redo functionality.

The object of the game is to leave the fewest cards on the

tableau as possible. If the discard pile is empty, discard

any exposed card or a card from the stock. Thereafter,

discard exposed cards that are one rank above or below the

rank of the last discard. If stuck, click the stock to

start a new sequence. An ace = 1. A hole is finished when

there are no valid discards and the stock is empty or all

face-up cards have been discarded. The score for a hole is

the number of face-up cards remaining minus cards remaining

in the stock. There are nine holes in a game. Each hole

is par 5. The lowest 25 totals of nine holes are saved.

Up to four players may play each hole. Match play is

supported.

There are three difficulty levels:

Strict - No card can be placed on a King. First discard

is from the stock.

Default - Queens can be placed on Kings. First discard

is chosen by the player.

PuttPutt - Same as default but you can also rollover between

Kings and Aces.

'1-4' changes the number of players. 'S, D, or P' selects the

difficulty level, 'N' starts a new game, 'H' shows help, 'A' is

about, 'LEFT' is undo, 'RIGHT' is redo, 'R' shows saved scores,

and 'Q' quits. Alternately, you can use the menus for these

actions.

Please contact me at the above e-mail address if you find any

bugs or want additional features. Have fun!
