I'm a solitaire nut. But I have always hated the Klondike implementations that have been available. Why should I have to click the HINT button to see all of the available moves? Why should I have to keep hitting the DRAW button to see the next triplet from the Talon?
So, about 15 years ago when I retired from Boeing Computing, I decided to fix these deficiencies and coded my first Klondike. It had all available moves pre-calculated and shown as buttons. Press the button and the move is carried out. It had the entire Talon shown at once (again, with move buttons).
And over the years, as I played my new Klondike, I kept thinking of other things that would be nice to have (without changing the rules). And I added them. Like:
Stacking Maps - showing all 52 cards in stacking order (red on black) showing where each card is and whether it's theoretically playable.
Build Maps - one for each suit in ...
