Version history of CrossWords:
=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-

Version 4.0 -- June 1, 1996

-- This release includes a scoring module incorporated into the cwords.exe
   program; it is backwards compatible (ie., meaning it will work with any
   of the previous puzzles created).

=============================================================================
Version 3.5 -- May 25, 1996

-- This release addresses a problem that multi-node BBS's had with the way 
   in which CrossWords wasn't sharing opened files across nodes. As of 
   version 3.5 this problem is now fixed. 

==============================================================================
Version 3.1 -- May 20, 1996

-- Maintenance Release. Only a minor change in the way in which the 
   program handles 'detecting' whether or not the remote caller has
   ANSI loaded. Special thanks to Rich Coon for this one. 

==============================================================================
Version 3.0 -- April 3, 1996

-- Well, the player scoring had bugs that would require extensive debugging to
   fix; so I have removed the scoring algorithm for now - should have it worked
   out for version 4 later this year.
-- Seems I forgot to reset/clear the puzzles before zipping up the archive;
   corrected that problem. 
-- Added CWEDIT to this release - used to create/modify puzzles for use with 
   CrossWords. Will only work if you have CrossWords registered.
-- Added <R>edraw option to the program.
   	

==============================================================================
Version 2.0 -- December 23, 1995

-- Added player scoring to the program. Added 5 new puzzles to the program.
   Re-wrote the program code to use random access files for .dat files; this
   dramatically cut down on the number of files on the Hard Drive and sped 
   up the program quite a bit.

==============================================================================
Version 1.0 -- December 3, 1995

-- First public release! 

============================================================================
Version 0.1a <BETA> November 14, 1995

-- Compiled source code using QuickBasic 4.5 & DoorFrame 4.9
-- Set a limit of 2 trys per puzzle per player for unregistered version.
   Registered versions are sysop configurable.	
-- Added a screen for non-ANSI users before dumping them back to the BBS.
-- ANSI REQUIRED!
