seahaven 

This is Seahaven Towers, a solitaire card game written for X11R4 and C++. With this program you can waste great amounts of time. As opposed to the common "solitare" which is actually Knondike, this game also requires some brain power in order to use it. This program also includes an "autoplay" button so you can see if the game can be solved and how to do it.

This is a classic program written by Terry Weissman and Charles Haynes. My only modifications have been to replace the card bitmaps with larger ones and some code cleanup to remove C++ compiler warnings.

Here is a screenshot:

Latest version (1.60) uses an actual timer for the animation to make it smooth, and draws the text antialiased using Xft.
