This is a whirly word (AKA Word Search) program made in pascal. You can create whirlywords and export them to HTML as well as play them within the program. See the readme file. This is the program that I made for my 12th grade computer science project.

1. How to install the program.
2. How to run the program.
3. Where to get help.
4. Format of a wordlist text file.
1. This program doesn't require any real installation, all you need to do is run the program
(See 2). For the program to run quicker, copy the folder onto your computer before running it.
2. There are two shortcuts that you can use to run the program. Running it with 'Option 1' is the same as running it without any shortcut. The difference between the options is how words are added into the list from which the program decides which words will be in the whirlyword. Try them both to see.
3. To get help in the program, press 'H'. This help is screen sensitive - Ie. Each screen has something else to say.
4. A wordlist text file is one in which you have entered in a list of words and the program can read the file and add those words to the list. Here is the format:
1st Line: Write in the XLength followed byt the YLength of the grid (Right Aligned). Eg:
' 8 6' - not '8 6 ' nor '8 6'. 8 = XLength. 6 = YLength.
The next 20 line are the words. One word per line. Like this:
Mary
Had
Little
Lamb
The
Doctor
GotA
Fright
And there you have a text file that the program can read. Look at words.txt for an example.
"Mary Had a little Lamb,
the doctor got a fright.
Old Mac Donald had a farm,
the doctor nearly died!!!"
Enjoy,

Ps. WWPaint is the prorgam I made to draw my buttons. WWPaintAdds (r Whatever) is the unit that I made for it. My_Adds is the same one, but evolved. My_Adds is not compatible with WWPaint.
