All about crosswords!

Crossword solving tool (FREE)

This is as a Tripper's way to replace for a traditional way of solving crosswords using PC. But why this replacement could be needed or wished for?

x First of all, printed crosswords need paper, and paper could be used for something much more valuable.
x Second, solving crosswords in a traditional way impose some effort of finding definition of a horizontal and/or vertical word in a not so easy to look for tables.
x And third, you often want some help and/or check on correctness of your solution and you must wait for a week (next edition) or look on a separate page (wasting your precious time).

Crossword solving tool offers a great relief in these matter. This is a small program that is not intended to be executed as a classical program but only to open a crossword definition file.

Features

Crossword Editing Tool

To be able to open a file that contains a crossword some tool must exist for creating that file.

This tool will not create a crossword for you, you must have it constructed before and than use this tool to convert it to an appropriate format for use with solving tool. And this format is unique and supports following features:
x You can add any number of pictures (JPEG) to the crossword that will be saved in a crossword definition file.
x Three languages are supported, English, German (modern version without umlauts) and Serbian (Cyrillic) and two character sets for definitions (ANSI and Cyrillic). So you can make multilingual crossword (words in one language and definitions in another, that can be great for learning of foreign languages).

This is a tool that can and should be used to enlarge existing collection of ready-made crosswords that shall be included in future installations.

Crossword Making Tool

This is a most valuable part of this software package. It is the crossword constructing tool that will create all possible crosswords from a word database in a particular language. This tool comes with an empty words database. The reason for this is to keep download size of our installation file to a minimum and to reuse existing downloads on our site. Euroword (English-German-French-Serbian dictionary and lexicon) has option for exporting words directly into a crossword. The same dictionary could be used as a valuable help in obtaining proper definition for any word used in a crossword solution. And you can use your own word collections for the same purpose.
Huge word collection is essential for finding solution so using Euroword is strongly recommended.
