This website contains an archive of files for the Acorn Electron, BBC Micro, Acorn Archimedes, Commodore 16 and Commodore 64 computers, which Dominic Ford has rescued from his private collection of floppy disks and cassettes.
Some of these files were originally commercial releases in the 1980s and 1990s, but they are now widely available online. I assume that copyright over them is no longer being asserted. If you own the copyright and would like files to be removed, please contact me.

Wordsearch Creator
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
by Andrew Ellam
�1992 Archimedes World
Wordsearch Creator helps you construct wordsearch puzzles. For
anyone who hasn't met this type of puzzle before, interlocking words are
placed on a grid and the gaps in between are filled with other letters. Words
may run up, down, left, right or along any of the four diagonals, but they
must always run in a straight line. The more letters that are shared by
words, and the more words that run in the harder to read directions (N, W
and NW), the harder the puzzle is.
Menus

Info
~~~~
Standard info box.
New grid
~~~~~~~~
Opens a dialogue box to create a new grid. This box also appears when you
click on the Wordsearch icon for the first time.
Options
~~~~~~~
Opens the options window. Icons are:
Bias towards difficult directions biases the words towards the harder to
read directions, ie N, NW and W.
2 "Fill gaps" options - the gaps between words on the grid can be filled in
three ways:
1) With sections of the words already used. These act as "decoy" words, and
make the real ones harder to find.
2) With letters from the words already used. Again, these hide the real
words.
3) With random letters. This only happens if both of the above are turned
off.
Background mode - Whether to work in the background of the Desktop or occupy
the entire machine.

drivers.

first time.
Gaps Fill gaps

Fill gaps in puzzle using method set in options.
Clear gaps
~~~~~~~~~~
Clear the gaps between words.
Statistics
~~~~~~~~~~
Quality of word-fitting is the ratio of the number of letters used in the
puzzle to the number of letters used in the words comprising the puzzle. The
less letters used in the grid, the more shared between words, so the harder
the puzzle. Quality of gap-filling is the number of gaps which were filled
in each possible way. This will be 0% if all the gaps were filled with
random letters, 50% if they were all filled with letters already used, and
100% if they were all filled with parts of words already used.
Other Stuff
~~~~~~~~~~~~~
I have added a set of moving dashes to show that the app is actually still
alive when it is having a long think, also an ic_wordsearch sprite so
iconised windows (under RISC OS 3) have their own sprite.

Finally the boring copyright notices:
This application is �1992 Archimedes World. The (excellent) Interface
Manager module is �1991 SoftWare Interrupt Developments. Thanks are also
due to Jason O'Broin, who wrote the original wimp skeleton (although there's
not a whole lot of it left now!).
