Hangman
by
Hamish Haynes
Version 1.0
17th May, 1992
Files Included:
Hang.doc (this file)
Hangm.opa
Hang.pic
Words.dbf
Installation:
copy Hangm.opa - APP directory
copy Hang.pic - OPD directory
copy Words.dbf - DAT directory
Having copied the files, install the application from the system screen.
Playing the game (if you didn't already know how !)
----------------
You have ten attempts to guess the hidden word, each incorrect attempt
loses a life or starts to build the scaffold. The incorrect letters are
displayed at the bottom of the screen, but BEWARE - you can make the same
mistake twice (just like in life) !!! If, on the other hand, you press the
correct letter, ALL instances of this letter appear in the hidden word.
You are then unable to use that letter again during the current round.
Editing words
--------------
Should you wish to alter, add or delete words, simply load "Words.dbf" as
a database file, and change the data. Hang will only accept words of
8 characters or less and ignores all others. I have changed the
"attributes" of WORDS.DBF so that it doesn't appear on the system screen,
so the best way to access it is via the directory option.
These programs are freeware. However, In the totally impossible event
that they cause a meltdown in your Series 3, I am in no way responsible !!
Any comments, criticisms, money, best wishes, more money or anything else
