Beside each row of the grid are listed the lengths of the " +"runs of black squares on that row; above each column are listed the " +"lengths of the runs of black squares in that column.

However, since this version " +"generates the puzzles automatically, they will just look like random " +"groupings of squares. (One user has suggested that this is actually " +"a _good_ thing, since it prevents you from guessing the colour of " +"squares based on the picture, and forces you to use logic instead.) " +"The advantage, though, is that you never run out of them. " +"\n" +"\n#10.1 Pattern controls " +"\n" +"This game is played with the mouse. " +"\n" +"Left-click in a square to colour it black. Right-click to colour it " +"white. If you make a mistake, you can middle-click, or hold down " +"Shift while clicking with any button, to colour the square in the " +"default grey (meaning `undecided') again. " +"\n" +"You can click and drag with the left or right mouse button to colour " +"a vertical or horizontal line of squares black or white at a time " +"(respectively). If you click and drag with the middle button, or " +"with Shift held down, you can colour a whole rectangle of squares " +"grey. " +"\n" +"You can also move around the grid with the cursor keys. Pressing the " +"return key will cycle the current cell through empty, then black, " +"then white, then empty, and the space bar does the same cycle in " +"reverse. " +"\n" +"Moving the cursor while holding Control will colour the moved-over " +"squares black. Holding Shift will colour the moved-over squares " +"white, and holding both will colour them grey.
