xword v0.03
Patrick Crosby <pcrosby@pobox.com>
The AcrossLite UNIX binaries have never worked for me, so I wrote xword to remedy the problem. xword should be able to read any AcrossLite puzzle file. Hopefully, the interface is pretty self-explanatory, but here's a little documentation in case:
Cursor Movement:
- Use arrow keys to move cursor around. If currently doing an "Across" clue, pressing the down/up arrow will switch to the "Down" clue and the cursor won't move.
- Ctrl + Right Arrow: go to next across clue
- Ctrl + Left Arrow: go to previous across clue
- Ctrl + Down Arrow: go to next down clue
- Ctrl + Up Arrow: go to previous down clue
- Home: go to upper left corner
- End: go to lower right corner
- Clicking anywhere in the puzzle with the mouse will also move the cursor to that position.
Answer Entry:
- Just type it in. Use Backspace or Delete to erase.
Saving Puzzle:
- Ctrl-S or the Save button
Opening Puzzle:
- Open button. If the puzzle has a save file associated with it, the save file will be automatically loaded.
