-
- To run the program from the DOS prompt simply run:
-
- puz2pil FILENAME.puz or
- puz2pil FILENAME.cwe
-
- (Replace 'FILENAME' with the name of the puzzle file you are converting)
-
- This will create a file called FILENAME.pdb. You can then use the
- instapp program to install this file on your pilot, and the next time
- you run XWord, it will be showed in in the list of available puzzles.
-
- For USA Today puzzles, the title of the puzzle will display, and for
- CWE puzzles, the FILENAME will show in the list.
