For those that enjoy solitare card games, here is a link to a newer
version of Pysol that runs on MS Windows machines. The link is:

http://pygames.sourceforge.net/

It looks as if someone has forked the code so that it will run better on
Windows and has added an installer.

There is also a link to a more recent version pysol for use on Windows
machines. You will need to install python on your machine to be able to
run the software, so it is not a small download.

Best thing is they re-incorporated Mahjongg type games. It's a
keeper...despite the large download.

Didn't they promise that one time, there will be a new compiled version
of Pysol for Windows, when version 5.x is out? It seems that version is
still a long way from completion.

Ah, I see you are talking about a variant. I first had believed you
meant something that might be a mirror of

Which seems to have been like this for more than a year.

I may not have made it clear. At

http://www.oberhumer.com/opensource/pysol/

the most recent version of Pysol is 4.8.2 but there are no versions that
are easily used on MS Windows systems.

At http://pygames.sourceforge.net/ there are links to two versions of
Pysol. One is version 4.81 (a lite and non-lite version), and the other is
to version 0.10 of Pysolitaire.

It sounds as if Pysolitaire has been forked from the original Pysol. I am
notgoing to argue the merits of this, but just wanted to bring it to the
groups attention. It seems as if there is a steady request for games.

I've posted Pysol 4.40 (3.66mb) to alt.binaries.freeware. No separate
Python install required.

Does that version do the Mahjongg type games?

Doubt that I can help, but I installed ActivePython first and then
installed Pysolitaire. This is on a Windows 2000 system. It seems to be
running allright so far.

I have Win98SE and I already have Python 2.2.3 on my system, which
didn't want to install Active Python terribly well. I will try again
next week and see if I can't talk this baby into installing the
programs. LOL

Was there a problem with the old version on Windows? I used to play it
regularly about a year back on Windows 98SE without any problems.

None that I ever run into. I know that there have been several updates.

The one thing I would like to figure out is how the version 4.60 of Pysol
was made. It is a MS Windows executable that does not require a separate
Python installation.

I get a message saying it's not a valid Win32 application when I double
click the download file.

Any idea what the difference is gamewise between 4.81 and 0.10?

Frank ....

There are distribution utilities available for Python
that compile the Python interpreter/run-time files
into an executable ....

The drawback is if you have 42 applications
compiled this way, you have 42 embedded Python interpreters ....
 
that are easily used on MS Windows systems.

Sorry no. I have not had the time to do any looking around at the
Pysolitaire web site.

Questions: With 4.60 I get weird interference with the sound files.
I've downloaded 4.81 ... will the sounds work better? will the proggie know
where Python is?
