NAME
cgram - solve Sunday-paper cryptograms
SYNOPSIS
cgram
DESCRIPTION
cgram is a curses-based widget for solving Sunday-paper-type cryptograms
based on substitution ciphers. A random cleartext is chosen using
fortune(6) and a random substitution key is generated.
The ciphertext is displayed. Typing a letter changes the key so that the
letter under the cursor maps to the newly typed letter, and updates the
display accordingly. Use Emacs-type cursor commands or standard cursor
keys to move around. Enter a tilde (~) to quit. Press asterisk (*) to
enter an easier mode where correct letters are displayed in boldface.
