You can email me (at time of writing) on either jamesstanley@bluebottle.com or
james@stanley.homelinux.org. The Bluebottle server is more likely to be
working, but I am less likely to mistake your message for spam on my server.
It's best if you send any messages to both, really.
  
My countdown solving software will solve the countdown games. This includes
the words game, the numbers game, the teatime teaser, and the conundrum. All
except the numbers game are solved with the 'words' program.
  
Compiling
---------

If you have gcc and all of it's particulars, you can compile on a UNIX system
with a simple:

$ ./compile.sh

If this gives any errors, make an attempt to fix them, and e-mail me if you
discover it to be a bug in my programming.

If you run a non-UNIX operating system, look in the compile.sh file and make an
educated guess about how to compile. If you really can't work it out, e-mail me
and I'll see what I can do.

Running
-------

Running the software is fairly straightforward. If you don't know what
arguments to give, don't pass any and you will be told. The 'dictionary' file
is the one that contains the appropriate dictionary, 'dict' is the file from
which 'dictionary' was generated with gendict.
