Hi Suresh & Richard,
ReplyDeleteNo pardon required you are welcome to use the blog for discussion on CW's. Glad to see you'll had a lively debate.
Chaturvasi, thanks for stepping in
I am sharing a tool Crossword Assistant that I developed some years ago.
ReplyDeleteRediscovered it today... because of Colonel's absence...:)
I have put it up at http://toytools.googlecode.com/files/CWADOS2001.zip
Just unzip and use CWA.exe . You may open the file 9645.GRD as an example.
Please bear with the DOS-style of interface.
Hopefully, I will be making a mobile version of this soon.
Off-topic note to Col. Deepak Gopinath
ReplyDeleteDeepak,
Have a nice trip.
I was in Guruvayur last month.
I was part of a 80-strong group, comprising mostly women, who make an annual trip there to recite Narayaneeyam in its entirety in a room in the precincts of the temple.
As a volunteer at the local temple, I had a chance to join the group.
I also visited Mammiyoor and Chowgallur temples - quiet and peaceful.
A walk through the elephant camp too was enjoyable.
Of course, you must have been to all these places before.
