    scaleable. It is also faster and shuffling works properly.
  • Gnomine has new, improved graphics and a hint function.
  • Freecell (the aisleriot version) now has supprot for
    super-moves and is a lot closer to the stand-alone version in
    behavior.
  • Glines has new graphics and is also completely scaleable.
  • Aisleriot now keeps track of statistics on the games you
    play.
  • Gnect has recieved a major upgrade and is now leaner and
    cleaner.
  • For aislriot and blackjack the dialog for changing the card
    style has been reworked.

artwork. In alphabetical order they are: Steve Chaplin,

You will need the GNOME 2.6 development platform to build this,
especially GTK 2.3. It is also desirable to have gettext 0.12. To
compile Aisleriot you will need the guile scheme interpreter. For
Blackjack and Gnometris you need a C++ compiler.
