Filling words

The AutoFill feature lets you fill grids automatically from a word list. A default word list is supplied, and many optional extras list are available or you can can make your own lists. You can also fill round existing words and do themed fills.

The filler is very fast - many grids can be filled in seconds or less. It uses a word scoring system to use more 'good' words, so you can generate high-quality fills automatically.

The Word List Manager feature can be used to make, edit and manipulate word lists. You can also import and export from text files.

Finding Words

If you prefer you can use the AutoFind feature to find words to go in a particular slot in the grid. You can search multiple word lists and also check intersections.

Writing clues

You can use the Clue Editor to write clues or insert clues from a database. You can link directly to the optional WordWeb Pro dictionary/thesaurus, or to various third-party dictionaries.

Clues can contain bold and italic, and sub- and super-script, and can be in any language. You can add a citation or explanation for cryptic clues. A button links to an anagram generator for finding anagrams, partial words and container anagrams. Pop-up menus give help with cryptic-clue indicators.

Reviewing clues

In the Review/Edit Clues window you can view all your clues, edit, and spell-check them.
