For years - good grief - I've enjoyed playing Klondike, from the Videx
Funpack; originally bought for my 128k Mac, its little vagaries
are getting to me now I have a couple of hard disks and lots of inits.

Vagaries? The <expletive> program insists on a hard reset on quitting. It
works just fine under multifinder (no Apple menu, tho') and if I left
it alone all would be well; but...

Does anyone (a) remember this program and - holds breath.. (b) know of
any way I can defeat its desire to reboot every time I leave it? I do
have a kosher copy, for what that's worth; are Videx still around?

Finally, any suggestions on current release Klondike for the Mac? Are there
any card games around now?

Thanks in advance...!
