Solve crossword puzzles in PUZ and TPZ format.
To start the game, you can either click on an icon in the documents tab, or start the game in the games tab and select the puzzle in a file selection box
Select words either by using the up and down arrow keys or by clicking on the corresponding cell. The cells of the selected word will change their background color to yellow. If the word is only partially visible, the puzzle window will scroll to make it fully visible.
To enter a word using the keyboard (or the input window of the Zaurus), press the enter key or the first character of the word. The keyboard input dialog box will appear.
You can also enter words using the mouse. If you click longer than the long click timeout specified in the configuration menu, one of three input methods is invoked.
The keyboard input dialog is the same as for pressing enter. In the mouse input dialog, you can select the new character for the selected cell.
If you choose the option to rotate the characters, the character of the selected cell will start cycling through the alphabet, first slow, then faster. The direction depends on where you click on the cell: clicks on the upper half rotate the character backwards in the alphabet, clicks on the lower half rotate them forward.
The hint command displays the correct content for all wrong or entered cells in red for a selected time.
The puzzle state is saved when selecting an other puzzle and on exit and is restored if you select the puzzle again. If you want to restart solving from an empty puzzle again, use the reset command to clear the cells.
