Freecell 2.0.txt

New in 2.0:
Multicard moves
Simple undo
Source included


This is a version of freecell I ported and modified  from 
Jeremy Dewey's 4Cell for Palm Pilot Pocket C. He used  
a card library by Rich Heslip modified by John Vann.

I have added  multicard move, and a simple undo  which was also not 
included in the Palm version.

Multicard Move: The rules are almost correct at this point, some minor adjustments are still needed. In order to move several cards at one time, tap the highest (of value ) to be moved - it  will be hilighted. This in contrast to other Freecell where you click on the lowest and it asks to move one or more card.

Undo: As of now it will only undo one-card moves and not if there has been an autofinish move to 
the build up pile in between.

Some time the hiliting of the cards doesn't reset. 

Double clicking a card will move it to the reserve pile.

As far as I know (too much playing the game) it should work fine without any adverse effect on the Avigo.
However I do not make any guarantees.
At one point in the developing process I was working on a version that would freeze the Avigo. In order to unfreeze, the easiest way I found was to leave it on while taking out the batteries. When I put the batteries  in again, the Avigo would return to normal state. Nothing like that has happened with this version though.

Source code is included with some questions I have. I would appreciate any comments to
