This is a program to export Seahaven Towers games
from Patience 2.5, available here:
http://clueserver.org/keithp/pilot/pilot.html

It only works with this version -- if you have a
different version you'll need to upgrade or
change the structure definitions in getgame.c.

Patience 2.5 only stores the random number seed,
so this program shuffles the deck exactly the
same way that Patience 2.5 does, and then
saves it as a PalmOS database.  So you have to
run this program, and then use pilot-xfer or
similar to upload the file PatGame.pdb.

Once you have that up, you need to run the
convert_tower script and send the output
to the solver.

I suppose this might work with Patience 2.5's
Freecell game (as opposed to Towers), but I
don't play that so I never tested it.  The
convert script would certainly have to be
changed.
