Version 1.1 adds a fanned tableau and undo/redo.

This is an implementation of the Aces Up solitaire card

game. It is quite difficult to win but easy to learn.

The object of the game is to end with 4 Aces on the tableau

with all other cards discarded. There are five piles, the

deck is on the left. If there are two or more cards of the

same suit, discard (by clicking) all but the highest-ranked

card of that suit. Aces rank high. Fill empty piles with

the top card from any pile. When there are no more cards to

move or discard, deal the next four cards by clicking on the

deck. Repeat this discarding, moving, and dealing process

until all cards have been dealt, discarded, and moved. Your

score is the number of cards discarded. The high score is 48

which leaves Aces on all of the piles; hence the name of the

game. The highest 25 scores are saved.

'N' starts a new game, 'H' shows help, 'A' is about, 'R' shows

the result, 'SPACE' deals 4 cards, 'LEFT' is undo, 'RIGHT" is

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

these actions.
