Hangman V1.01
=============

Hangman is a simple word guessing game that allows a player the chance to guess letters of
a hidden word (or the word itself).  This game gives a player 6 chances to guess the word
before being 'hung'.  This game of Hangman contains a list of 500 words that can be used or
words entered during game time (note, if the word file cannot be found, words must be 
entered by the players).  To be fun, most of the words are at least 4 characters long and
are limited to 20 characters.

The game includes several settable options including defining your own list of words,
selecting game sounds, to use sound or not and to display some of the prompts or not.

Hangman was written using Speedsoft's Sibyl.  The code is available by request (just 
e-mail me :)).  If you run into any problems, errors, have gripes or just plain don't like
something, let me know also (I get enough of the stealth complaints at work :)).

This is my first stab at getting more software available for OS/2 so take it easy on
me :).

Fixes:
------
Version 1.01 - Figured out how to correct/fix the tab order in dialogs without having to
               recreate each dialog.  This version corrects the tab order for all dialogs
               that were either missing tab stops or were not in a logical order.

To install:
-----------
Create a directory someplace (I put mine in my 'games' directory) and unzip the contents 
of hangman.zip into the directory.  Then put a program object in your favorite folder
pointing to whereever you installed the program at.  You can use the 'hinstall.cmd' program 
to put an program object on the desktop which you can then drag to your favorite folder.
It should be ready to run.

To play:
--------
After starting the program, press the 'start' button.  A dialog will be displayed which you
can then enter a word for someone to guess or let the game pick a word from the word
list (if available).  After a word is selected, the 'guess' button becomes enabled.  Press
'guess' to guess a letter or guess the word.  Keep pressing 'guess' until you guess the 
word or you are 'hung'.  Once this happens, the 'guess' button is disabled and you can
then press the 'new' button to select another word.  Number of words guessed/missed is
tracked on the main window.  You can keep guessing at words until you get tired, then
press the 'exit' button.

Options:
--------
Pressing the 'options' button allows the setting of several options.  You can select your 
own word list file (any text file with a list of words in it will do), to have sound or not,
and if prompting is turned on for new word selection and game exiting.  In addition, you
can select the sounds used for some of the game events.  Two sound files are included with
the game, BEEP.WAV and SWINGING.WAV.  My favorite for the Finished word sound is
APPLAUSE.WAV included with warp (I didn't include this one for obvious reasons :)).

Contact:
--------
You can e-mail me (Michael Slack) at 'slack@ibm.net' with any questions, complaints, etc.
Use the program at your own risk.  I have not tried it on Warp 3, so it might not work
exactly right (I may have to dig out my Warp 3 disks and reinstall to try different
things out with).
