freecell-pro-0fc-deals

Finding 8 column deals in the fc-pro range which are solvable with zero freecells. The interesting file is 0fc-log.txt which can be generated using the instructions below. "S" there means the following deal is solvable. "Int" means that it is intractable and that the solver ran out of resources before determining its solvability. If a deal does not appear in the list, then it is impossible to solve using zero freecells.
