- COMPOUND for Windows v. 1.0
- An annoying, addictive little word game
- by Matt Tagliaferri software.
-
- Compound 1.0 is a simple little word puzzle. The object is to unscramble the
- compound word given to you. A compound word is is defined in this program as a
- word made up of two smaller words.
-
- The word is mixed up and displayed in the lowermost box. To move letters,
- simply drag the letter to the desired box on the right side of the screen.
- Letters can also be moved from box to box, or from a box back down to the
- letter panel. The actual compound word may have the first half either
- horizontal or vertical (example: the word "hard-head" may have the word "hard"
- vertical and "head" horizontal, or vice-versa).
-
- The list of possible words is kept in the file COMPOUND.INI. Feel free to add
- words, subtract words, etc. See COMPOUND.INI for instructions on adding
- words.
