Tenace is a Bridge hand viewer and editor.
Main window
Main window with textual cards
Board editor
Tenace was written on Debian GNU/Linux, but should run on any platform that features GTK+ 3. To render images of cards, librsvg is used (other image formats to display cards work as well). The GUI is rendered using GtkBuilder.

- http://library.gnome.org/devel/rsvg/ http://ftp.gnome.org/pub/GNOME/sources/librsvg/
Tenace uses Bo Haglund's excellent DDS double dummy solver library for discovering optimal leads and computing parscores.
Get and unpack the tarball.
$ ./configure --help
$ ./configure
$ make
# make install
If you are running Debian, get packages from the next Debian mirror.
The contrib sub-directory contains some useful supplementary files:
- mailcap, mime.types: sample MIME configs to launch Tenace from web browsers and mail clients. On Debian systems, mailcap will automatically be installed. mime.types can be appended to your ~/.mime.types.
- bonded.svg: SVG data to render cards. Most probably already installed in /usr/share/gnome-games-common/cards/ or the like by your Gnome installation.
- German (de)
- Norwegian Nynorsk (nn) by Yngve Spjeld Landro
More translations welcome! (For technical reason, there's also an English
translation that only contains four strings, though real en_US/en_GB
translations would be welcome as well.)
The Tenace source code is maintained on GitHub:
I'd be happy to hear back from you, either by mail, or using the Debian bug tracking system. I'm Myon on BBO, feel free to say hello there.
- Mark Voorhies spotted a problem with greying out already-played cards.
- Christos Trochalakis suggested the "Open in web" feature.
I probably forgot to list others here. Please tell me when this is the case.
