puz2pil.exe  Help


This progam simply converts crossword puzzles into .pdb files which can
be loaded on the Pilot.

Currently it supports two formats.

The Puzzles which are available from the USA Today daily crossword page
and puzzles created by Crossword Express from Pinnacle Solutions.

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.
