@N@LETTER MATCH@B@ is an easy to play and very challenging word game, designed
to test your memory, category knowledge and spelling.

@H@The object of the game is to match as many words as possible, each time
trying to beat the score you have posted in the high score file, as well
other players scores.

@B@The Sysop determines the category subject and the program will display it
at the top of the box that contains the current word you are working with.

@H@You must think of a word, in line with the current category, whose first
letter matches the last letter of the word in the box OR whose last letter
matches the first letter of the word in the box.

@N@For Example@B@: Given the category "STATES and CAPITALS" and an initial word
             of "OREGON", you could use the last letter in "COLORADO" to
             match the first letter in "OREGON" or you could use the first
             letter in "NEW YORK" to match the last letter in "OREGON". The
             first letter of the word on your screen must match the last
             letter of the word you play and vice versa. In addition words
             already played by you or the computer are no longer eligible
             for play.

@H@The word you choose then replaces the word in the box. At this point you
will chooses another word OR the computer will play a word. Your Sysop
controls whether or not the computer will be playing.

@B@The program automatically detects if there are any remaining matches that
can be made. If none remain the game will end. You can quit at any time
and your accumulated score, up to that time, will be saved IF it is greater
than the score you may already have in the high score file.
