Games::Crosswords - Crosswords Game
use Games::Crosswords;
$c = Games::Crosswords->new({TABLE => blah, LEXICON => blah blah});
$c->genpuzzle();
This module helps users create crosswords and print output to a TEX file. Users can convert the TEX ouput to a ps or pdf file.
To illustrate the parameters, it is better to use an example.
TABLE => <<BLAH; @@@@.@ @@@@.@ @@.... @@@@.@ BLAH,
@ is for a block cell, and . for a blank one.
LEXICON =>
{
DOWN =>
[
[ 0, 4, 'The camel language', 'Perl' ],
],
ACROSS =>
[
[ 2, 2, 'The cool author', 'xern' ],
]
}
The first two indicate the y-th row and the x-th column. Both of them count from 0. Then, the hint follows. The last one is the answer which is not necessary unless users invoke gensolution.
Users may redefine the crosswords table.
Users may redefine the lexicon data.
