- The Gallows is a Hangman type game with 3,150 words available in a file
- named GallowWords.
- Objective of the game is to fill in the blanks and guess the word.
- Operation of the game itself is mostly self-explanatory. Guess letters by
- either using the mouse and the letters across the bottom of the screen or by
- using the keyboard. The character graphic is hung after the seventh miss.
- The letter gadgets at the bottom of the screen also function as the list
- of available letters. If a letter is showing, it is available.
- New words may be added to or substituted for the ones included by
- listing one word per line using practically any ASCII text editor and saving
- the list under the name "GallowWords". The word list can have no more than
- 9,450 words, and each word can have no more than 20 characters. Put the word
- list in the same directory as the program: Gallows.
