After M-x crossword and with ~/Crosswords containing your 2 example
files, it fails:

Copy: 1 of 2
Copy: 2 of 2
Copy: 2 files done
split-string: Args out of range: "\"Uh...\"--an uncomfortable pause.

I can't reproduce your error yet, but there have been several others
that I've fixed. Please try again with the latest commit (just a few
minutes ago), but since your report is so different, if you don't want
to download an updated version, just maybe send me more details, because
I can't reproduce what you're reporting.

Nice, thanks for writing this package.  I have a personal package to
solve a puzzle type that is not really common, I think.  It is published
by a national newspaper, in Argentina.  Unfortunately, it doesn't seem
that the .puz format can't handle it, so I've represented it with the
.ipuz format.  I'd be interested if you ever add .ipuz support for
emacs-crossword.

I've run into the same problem that Jean Louis.  I'll open an issue in
Github.

If you've already written code to support ipuz, sharing that might help.

Please. With details. I am getting feedback of successful use, so it
may not be a 'simple' case.

Not really; the rendering is pretty specific to my puzzle type.  I might
work on extending it (someday), though.

Done.

Sometime yesterday the package was accepted to MELPA, so it can now be
easily installed and updated directly from Emacs.
