A solitaire-like game played in a shell.
Also known as пасьянс (solitaire in Russian), it's originally a minigame within EXAPUNKS by Zachtronics. Pasyans is a simple way to kill time and something I wanted to be able to play in a separate window.
- Numbered cards are stacked by alternating color and decreasing value, and can be moved together as a stack of any size.
- Face cards are stacked by suit in any order, and can also be moved as a stack.
- To win, sort the dealt cards into four completed stacks of numbered cards and four completed stacks of face cards.
- The furthest right cell is called the free cell and can store a single card of any type.
-
Move: Used to move a single card or a stack from a source cell to a destination cell.

Use to install the game script, so that the game can be started by entering pasyans in your shell while in any directory. Note: The install script will prompt you for your shell's password, since it is necessary to copy a file into your /usr/local/bin directory.
Enter source install.sh in to your shell
Python 3 is required to run the game script, which is not included within the install.sh script. To install Python 3, check here
