- Files Included:

- 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 !!
