Welcome to 3 Shuffles and a Draw, a challenging and addictive Solitaire game with a twist -- you get three cracks at winning, and you even get a chance  to legally "cheat" once each game.

3 Shuffles and a Draw is distributed as ShareWare.  That means you get to try it BEFORE you buy it.  And if you don't like it, you don't have to pay for it.  But we think you'll enjoy it, and we've made the "bite" real easy -- just $5.00 (plus state and local tax for Washington residents).  We think you'll agree that it's well worth the price!

To install 3 Shuffles and a Draw, just run the SETUP.EXE program from this directory using any of the standard Windows methods (the Run... command from the Program Manager's File menu or from the File Manager's File menu, or double-click from the File Manager, etc.)

The SETUP program will create a directory on your disk to hold the necessary files.  (Certain common files will also be placed in your Windows directories if they aren't there already.)  SETUP will then create the necessary Program Manager group and item icons.  Once SETUP has completed, just click on the 3 Shuffles and a Draw icon and you're off and running.

NOTE: one required file which is ONLY included on the diskette is VBRUN300.DLL, usually found in your WINDOWS\SYSTEM directory.  You probably already have a copy of this file, but if you don't, you can download one from CompuServe, America Online, or almost any other bulletin board.

The following files are used during the setup process:

3SHUFFLE EX_        Compressed EXE
3SHUFFLE HL_        Compressed HLP
3SHUFFLE LOG        Version notes

THREED   VB_        Compressed VBX
VBRUN300 DL_        Compressed DLL -- diskette only
VER      DL_        Compressed DLL

Once the setup is complete, you can delete the above files if you wish.  The expanded versions of the required files will already be in place.  (Make sure you keep the original diskette or ZIP file in a safe place, however, in case you ever need to re-install.)
