       kslyfox - X window sly fox solitaire

SYNOPSIS

       kslyfox

DESCRIPTION

       Kslyfox brings up a window for a sly fox solataire game.  Clicking on a card moves it to the "best" legal
       play. Dragging a card places it (if legal) in the target stack.

RULES

       Sly Fox is a double-deck solitaire game.

       4  Aces  and  4  Kings  (1  of  each suit) is pulled out and used for the foundations, with the Ace piles
       building up in suit and the King piels building down.

       20 cards are dealt face up in 4 rows of 5 to form the reserve.

       Any of the reserve cards can be played on the foundations, and the space formed by  this  is  immediately
       filled in from the deck.

       Once  no  more  plays  can be made, cards are dealt one at a time from the deck.  Each card can either be
       played to a foundation, or placed on one of the 20 reserve stacks.  During this play, none of the reserve
       cards can be moved to the foundations.  Once 20 cards have been added to the reserve, the  reserve  cards
       can  again  be  played as before, except that spaces are not filled immediately, but instead left for the
       next deal.

       Playing the X version

       In general, clicking on a card will make it do the "right thing".  Cards  can  also  be  dragged  between
       piles.

       To change between Deal play (when the reserve cards are in play) to Reserve play (when the deck cards are
       being  added  to  the  reserve),  select 'Deal', hit the 'd' key or click on the deck.  Once 20 cards are
       added to the reserve stacks, the game will revert to Deal mode.

       During Reserve play, simply clicking on the destination of the card in play will place it there.
