In KRYPTO, a Quotation is converted into a series of symbols. Only the
letters of the alphabet and the dash(-), apostrophe('), period(.) or
questionmark(?) are allowed in the Quotation. The Kryptogram will be
up to four rows deep, depending on the length of the Quotation. The
maximum Quotation size is 100 letters and spaces. The purpose is to
assign letters to the symbols in the table until the Quotation has been
re-constructed.
To play, type KRYPPLAY, choose an KRYPTO file, then choose a Kryptogram
from that file. Press F1 to find out how to move, erase letters, etc.
and what the Train and Cheat Modes do.
Creating Kryptograms is easy. Just find an interesting quotation up to
100 letters and spaces long. ( Remember only letters of the alphabet,
spaces, apostrophe('), period(.), dash(-) and questionmark (?) can be used.
Type KRYPMAKE for the create module, and type in or select a filename.
Enter your name ( as the creator of the KRYPTO file ) and press F10.
Now choose ADD, type in your quotation and press F10. Now type in the
the name of the Quotation's author ( or a sentence to give the player a
clue about the quote ) and press F10.
And that's it! You can add as many Kryptograms as you want to the file
( up to 200) but I suggest you limit the file to 20 or 30 or the file gets
too big.
KRYPMAKE produces two files. The first ends in .KSR and the second one
has the same name but ends in .KRP. The .KSR file is the source code so
that you can change a Quotation later. The .KRP file is the one that is
used to play KRYPTO. So if you want to share your creations with others,
they only need the KRYPPLAY module and the .KRP files.
Why not upload some to your local Bulletin boards? Or to Compuserve
( the IBMNEW Forum - Word Games library or the Education Forum -
ShareWare library ). Identify your files with the key word KRYPTO so
others can find them easily. And watch for more of ours on Compuserve!
Have fun!
