* Patch from James H which adds keyboard cursor support to Unequal,Simon Tatham2009-01-12
| | | | | | | | and also updates the docs for both that and the Mines cursor support in r8402. [originally from svn r8408] [r8402 == f20847354cb6335fd349204f16021a72e2956cce]
* The other day I found it useful for a (silly) special purpose toSimon Tatham2008-11-29
| | | | | | | | | generate a thousand saved-game files of randomly generated puzzles. On the general principle that if I find it useful someone else conceivably might too, add a --save option to the Unix puzzle binaries, for use with --generate in much the same way as --print. [originally from svn r8351]
* Nearly forgot: Lambros definitely deserves a place in the copyrightSimon Tatham2008-09-06
| | | | | | statement! [originally from svn r8164]
* Completely re-engineered version of Loopy, courtesy of LambrosSimon Tatham2008-09-06
| | | | | | | | | | | Lambrou. Now capable of handling triangular and hexagonal grids as well as square ones, and then a number of semiregular plane tilings and duals of semiregular ones. In fact, most of the solver code supports an _arbitrary_ planar graph (well, provided both the graph and its dual have no self-edges), so it could easily be extended further with only a little more effort. [originally from svn r8162]

| | | | | | NestedVM. Wow! [originally from svn r8064]
* Having got Jigsaw mode generation working at reasonable speed, weSimon Tatham2008-04-08
| | | | | | can now productise it. [originally from svn r7979]
* Substantial reworking of Solo so that it implements both Sudoku-XSimon Tatham2008-04-07
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (require both main diagonals to have one of every digit in addition to all the usual constraints) and Jigsaw Sudoku (replace the array of rectangular sub-blocks with the sub-blocks being random polyominoes). To implement the latter, I've moved my `divvy.c' library routine out of the `unfinished' subdirectory. Jigsaw mode is currently an undocumented feature: you enable it by setting the rows parameter to 1 (and the columns parameter to your desired grid size, which unlike normal Sudoku can be anything you like including a prime number). The reason it's undocumented is because generation times are not yet reliably short: sometimes generating a jigsaw-type puzzle can hang for hours and still get nowhere. (The algorithm should terminate in principle, but not in any time you're prepared to wait.) I _think_ I know how to solve this, but have yet to try it. Until then, jigsaw mode will remain a hidden feature. Printing of X-type puzzles is also substandard at present, because the current print-colour API replaces the desired light shading of the X-cells with heavy diagonal hatching. I plan to adjust the API imminently to address this. [originally from svn r7974]
* UI change to Filling: allow multiple squares to be set at once.Jacob Nevins2008-02-10
| | | | | | | | | (This change adds a new possibility to the save format, such that new save files won't necessarily be loadable by old binaries. I think that's acceptable -- it's certainly happened before -- but I couldn't find anything in the developer docs explicitly blessing it.) [originally from svn r7849]

* New puzzle: `Tents'. Requires a potentially shared algorithms moduleSimon Tatham2005-10-13
| | | | | | | maxflow.c. Also in this checkin, fixes to the OS X and GTK back ends to get ALIGN_VNORMAL right. This is the first time I've used it! :-) [originally from svn r6390]
* Solve function for Inertia, using what's essentially an approximateSimon Tatham2005-09-11

* Now that Map has some seriously complex deductions, it's about timeSimon Tatham2005-08-31
| | | | | | | | | | | | it had a command-line solver. In order to do this, I've had to expose the internal region numbering because the solver has to have some way to state which region it means; and in any case it's also useful to have human-visible region numbering so that two people can discuss a puzzle they're solving together. So pressing L during play now toggles the display of region numbers; and `mapsolver' uses those same numbers when showing its working and its solutions. [originally from svn r6244]
* Forcing chains in Map give rise to a new `Hard' difficulty level.Simon Tatham2005-08-30
| | | | | | | Also implemented the Map analogue of Solo's pencil marks, to make this mode more playable. [originally from svn r6240]

* New puzzle: `Map'. Vaguely original, for a change.Simon Tatham2005-08-13
| | | | | | | | | | (This puzzle is theoretically printable, but I haven't added it in print.py since there's rather a lot of painful processing required to get from the game ID to the puzzle's visual appearance. It probably won't become printable unless I get round to implementing a more integrated printing architecture.) [originally from svn r6186]

* New puzzle: `Light Up', by James H.Simon Tatham2005-08-04
| | | | | | | | | | Also in this checkin (committed by mistake - I meant to do it separately), a behind-the-scenes change to Slant to colour the two non-touching classes of diagonals in different colours. Both colours are set to black by default, but configuration by way of SLANT_COLOUR_* can distinguish them if you want. [originally from svn r6164]
