26 ;; This mode is for playing a well-known game of solitaire
27 ;; in which you jump pegs across other pegs.
29 ;; The game itself is somehow self-explanatory. Read the help text to
30 ;; solitaire, and try it.

141 What is Solitaire?
143 I don't know who invented this game, but it seems to be rather old and
144 its origin seems to be northern Africa. Here's how to play:
145 Initially, the board will look similar to this:
147 Le Solitaire
148 ============
150 o o o
152 o o o
154 o o o o o o o
156 o o o . o o o
158 o o o o o o o
160 o o o
162 o o o
164 Let's call the o's stones and the .'s holes. One stone fits into one
165 hole. As you can see, all holes but one are occupied by stones. The
166 aim of the game is to get rid of all but one stone, leaving that last
167 one in the middle of the board if you're cool.
169 A stone can be moved if there is another stone next to it, and a hole
170 after that one. Thus there must be three fields in a row, either
171 horizontally or vertically, up, down, left or right, which look like
172 this: o o .
174 Then the first stone is moved to the hole, jumping over the second,
175 which therefore is taken away. The above thus `evaluates' to: . . o
177 That's all. Here's the board after two moves:
179 o o o
181 . o o
183 o o . o o o o
185 o . o o o o o
187 o o o o o o o
189 o o o
191 o o o
