The free downloadable application Across Lite will convert a specially formatted text file into a .puz binary file that anyone can use with the program. http://www.litsoft.com/across/docs/AcrossTextFormat.pdf describes the text format http://www.nytimes.com/ref/membercenter/help/litsoft.html is one of several places to download AcrossLite. http://code.google.com/p/puz/ has some software libraries for working with the .puz format in C and perhaps other languages lojbab -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "lojban" group.
