Hi All
Just to let you know I've finally
got a new version of SudokuSolver posted on the website.
http://www.rcbroughton.co.uk/sudoku/SudokuSolver.msi and a small update to the help file
http://www.rcbroughton.co.uk/sudoku/SudokuSolverHelp.msi.
The lengthy delay since the last version doesn't mean it's a super-dupler update - I've just been very, very busy at work and other things to devote the hours I needed to get this version ready.
Main things in this version are an improvement to the printing
hopefully it now does what it was supposed to do and allow you to print full size on a page.
Also, I've gone some way towards allowing different variations in the individial grids of a Gattai. It's not yet perfect, but does let you play with Jigsaw and Killer Gattai, etc.
Enjoy
