That is very nice package, entertaining. I think it requires a wizard function to create puzzles by users for other users. Does that exist? Then we can start creating puzzles. I would prefer that puzzle definition file is in the Emacs Lisp data format and not other format. Can that be done? I would also prefer to be able to switch to the *Hidden Puzzle* buffer by using `windmove-up' function or C-x o. But it does not work. Why not? In that window are words which user might want to access by using dictionary. But they cannot be accessed. Moving into that window works by mouse but not by keys, so why not enable keys? Jean
