Here is a fun little program I wrote to show off the ZeST Alternative Desktop 
code (GFA3) introduced on GEnie. It is simple and intuative so I will not go 
into great depth within this text file.  

When first run you will be presented with the ZeST introduction box. Just 
click inside the box to remove it (the right mouse button recalls it).


DEAL   Deals five cards into the top windows and then waits while you click 
       the buttons under each card to throw away what you don't want. 

DRAW   Discards your choices and re-deals new cards in their place. You only 
       get one draw. Jacks or better wins! The better the hand the higher 
       your winnings! Click DEAL again to start over. 

BET    Displays your current bet and when clicked increases the wager. 

TOTAL  Displays your running total for all games (positive or negative)! 
       Click here to exit the game. 

CUT    Click here to play "Cut for High Card" against the computer. You will 
       be prompted to choose one card from five then the ST will choose one!
       High card wins (ace is high)! 

SLOT   This is the "Slot Machine" option. The five top windows are instantly 
       transformed into a spinning one armed bandit! Two, three, four or
       five in a row wins big money. 

ZeST Draw Poker is another attempt at a NeXT look-a-like alternative desktop. 
Check out the ZeST desktop on GEnie. It includes a paint program, database, 
calendar and typewriter! All this stuff is freeware! Have fun.
