MAH JONGG SOLITAIRE -
play a 3000 year old gameLoren Blaney used an old programming language
that's been recently updated to create a great version of a game that I
find highly addictive. This version of Mahjongg doesn't have an installer.
Just unzip it and run it. It will download in only a few seconds because
the whole zipped program is on 42 kilobytes in size. Check out the other
freeware games hosted at this site. I grabbed a few of them. They are all
very well done and you can fit all them all on a single floppy
disk.

XPL0 PROGRAMMING
LANGUAGE
If you're wondering about the language
used to program Mah Jongg, it's called XPL0. You can probably get the
compiler and related tools from the same place that you got this file.
Look for XPL0-233.ZIP. XPL0 was created by a computer club called The 6502
Group at the Colorado School of Mines during the mid 70s. Although very
few people know and use XPL0, it competes surprising well with popular
languages such as C, Pascal, and
BASIC.
