BridgePal, the  computer version of the  card game of  bridge.  Here's
your  chance to  learn, practice,  or just  enjoy the  game of  bridge
without needing  three other players.   BridgePal is played  just like
bridge, except  the computer  shuffles and deals  the cards,  bids and
plays three hands,  and does the scoring.   You will bid and  play the
South hand.  If  your team gets the  bid, then you buy  both the North
and South hands.
        
There  are three  ways  to play  BridgePal.  SOLO  bridge  is for  one
player.  TWO PLAYER  bridge provides scoring for two  people, who take
turns playing random hands.  Similarly,  DUPLICATE scores for two, but
deals the same sets of hands to both players.
        
All three game options will ask if  you want the "Best Hand (Y/N)"? If
you reply Y(es), the hand with the most points is given to you (South)
on every  round.  All options  also ask  if you want  "Automatic Trick
Pickup (Y/N)"? If you reply Y(es), the cards will be "picked up" after
the fourth  card is played  on each trick.   Reply N(o) and  the cards
will be displayed until you "Push any key to continue."
        
BridgePal bidding is the same as  conventional bridge.  Bids which are
not  legitimate, like  one club  after  three hearts,  will cause  the
message "ILLEGAL BID"  to appear.  This will repeat until  a legal bid
is  made.   BridgePal  understands (and  makes)  the  following  bids:
Preempt, Short  Club, Take Out  Double, Penalty Double,  Overcall, and
Blackwood.
        
Deciding what  to bid can be  difficult, but HELP is  available.  Just
push "H"  and the  computer will suggest  a bid for  you.  To  see the
point COUNT for  your hand, push "C"  before you make a  bid.  To exit
the hand press the ESC(ape) key.
