Help file for file operations:

Crossword files:

    These are files that have the ".CRW" file-extender.Each crossword file
contains all the information about a particular crossword that you need.This
includes the positions of each word,the clues for each word and of course,
the words themselves.

Solution files:

    These files have the ".SLN" file-extender.These files are provided as a
convient means for you to save your solutions when you are only part way
through a crossword.Choosing SAVE SOLUTION from the FILE menu saves the
letters that you have entered into the crossword.You can then switch off
your ST or run another program.Then later when you load this program again
and load the correct crossword,you can reload your saved solutions using 
LOAD SOLUTIONS.

Help files:
  
    These are files just like this one.They have the ".HLP" file-extender
and can be loaded using LOAD HELP FILE as you must already have done,in
order to view this.You can also create your own help files as text files
then rename the extender to HLP.Once this is done,you can view your text 
file while using Erossword-Editor ST.

Configuration files:

    In order to deal effectively with all of the options available to the 
user,it is highly recommended that you create one of these and load it each
time you use crossword-editor.Once you have selected your printer driver,
fonts,square sizes etc.Simply select SAVE CONFIGURATION.All the options that
you have set will be saved.Later when you load it again they will all be
restored to their chosen values.Also the printer driver and fonts will be
loaded as well as any font settings for various windows and the print
options.For this reason,it is neccessary to have the fonts and driver in the
correct disk directory,as saved in your configuration file,otherwise the
program will be unable to find and load them. 

Other files:

    The other files that Crossword-Editor ST uses are; the printer driver
file(".PRN") and any GDOS font files(".FNT").You do not need to have GDOS
installed in order to use the GDOS fonts.Any old GDOS font will do,You can
load them all.Though some look better than others of course..See the
PRINTER.HLP help file for an explaination of the printer driver files.
