in reply to Perl/Tk Word Search Help/Suggestions

When I thought about what features I would like in such a game, it occured to me that I simply wouldn't play it on the computer. In some respects I really fancy paper, and I just would not play such a game for more than five minutes on a computer, whereas I could spend hours solving puzzles with pen and paper.
In your place, I would first off make sure that your mother would play that game on a computer.
Just a thought, though.

    CombatSquirrel,
    I actually had thought of that. I personally prefer the dead tree version of a book over an e-book anyday. My Mother does play Scrabble and a few other word games on the computer. One thing I know would detract her from using it would be if the font was too small and that's why I made flexibility a requirement. Thanks for the consideration - if I do it and it turns out half way decent I would be posting it here.

    Cheers - L~R
