Related, Oscar Toledo also made a tiny Klondike Solitaire program for IOCCC, I wonder if it was inspired by this one:

Solitiny :)

> NOTE: For DosBox users, DosBox doesn’t seem to support AT&T 6300 but the other modes work fine.

I'm pretty sure DOSBox supports the Olivetti M24 graphics mode.

Very nice. How about site where we can play it in the browser? There are several wasm dos simulators..

Not open source apparently?

I like to think I'm decent with C, and I thought I would be able to make my own solitaire, but just trying to wrap my head around how in the world I was supposed to lay out all the cards in memory and keep track of all the different states had me giving up pretty quickly.
