In order to use the new layouts,
tile sets, or backgrounds, you
should open the folders and copy
the contents into the folders with
the same names on your Mah-Jong
disk or in your hard drive.  The
Mah-Jong program will then be able
to find and use them.

Cheerful Chatter about the Scots
Tune tile set and the Tartan
tablecloths:

One day I was playing Mah-Jong
Solitaire, and an idea suddenly
hit me: "We need a new Tile Set!" 
I thought that a musical motif
would be 1) nice and 2) different,
so I started designing.  In a few
minutes, I had an assortment of
notes, rests, and other
musical-type stuff, and it looked
pretty drab.  Not enough variety.

"Hmmm," I thought, "we need
something to tie this together. 
How about a song?"  So I started
looking for a melody.  While
thumbing through a book of Scottish
songs that happened to be handy, I
came across one that looked about
the right size.  (Actually, it was
a bit longer than the number of
tiles available, so it stops in
mid-air, so to speak.)

I particularly like the fact that
this set comes out sort of pastel,
because the blue staff turns the
reds to pinks!

This tile set inspired me to
provide some tartan backgrounds to
play it against.  Believe me, I
durn near went cross-eyed counting
threads!  I think the Barclay looks
best with the set, though the
MacGregor is my tartan...

As a special incentive, if you send
me the  correct name of the tune at
the usual Cali-Co. address, I'll
send you a Really Great Recipe for
Haggis, and, what the heck, a
recipe for Edinburgh Rock, too! 
(No kidding!)

Have fun!
