Caption

WordHide.Exe is a word game. It will take a list of up to 20 words (each up to 20 characters in length) that you provide and hide them in an unpredictable square of random letters.

You determine the list of words. You determine how large or small the square will be. If you want, the program will save a list of words for you so you can use them at any time to create a word-square puzzle. The program will save as many lists as you want to create.

Once you create the word-square puzzle, you can print it out on a form that allows you to say who the puzzle is for, and who it's from.

Considering the processing it has to do to figure out a puzzle, WordHide is very fast. The various screen displays use a variety of colors and boxes designed to make the program easy to learn, use, and understand.

Finally, let me note that this program creates

1) An index file containing the names of all your wordlists (Word.Dex), and

2) A separate file for each list of words you want to save (*.Wds)

Therefore, if you use a floppy system (no hard drive), you need to keep WordHide on a floppy disk by itself. If you use a hard disk system, you need to keep WordHide in its own sub-directory.
