Usually when a web site doesn't work I can look at the source for
that page and see that a new script language is being used.
The header usually tells you the script version and its usually something
new.
Bandwidth is a problem but I never visit sites that require it.
My needs are simple. If there

One day a web site works and the next it doesn't. Just a big pain.

There are plenty of plug ins for that. I usually use DOS for video from

Actually HTML 5 is better than Flash for video and animation...

No, not exactly - the one I had on my private site was the beta version.
It changed a bit since then (the beta version had no save feature for
example). I think that you should be able to fetch the archive directly
(ie bypassing all the html5 stuff) by using this longish link:
http://downloads.
Is this the same one that you had on your private web site.
Sourceforge is using HTML 5 and I don't own anything that can read HTML
5.
I did download the one on your private site - haven't tried it yet.
Should be interesting.

Hi all,
Here I announce the final v1.0.2 of my simple Sudoku game for 8086 and
CGA/VGA.
This shall be the last version for some time now, since I am pretty
happy with it as it is. The main reason why this version happens is to
provide a workaround for some buggy mice - specifically for Rugxulo
Hi Marcos,
Thanks for the kind words!
Yes, the point was to (try to) create a game that is as
processing-efficient as possible, and as much power-green as it can get.
Of course it's just a simple Sudoku, not any rocket science, but still
it was a 'retro challenge' for me. I'm glad you like it.
Hi Mateusz,
Loved your Sudoku! You can be credited for inducing me to play a
game in a computer for the first time in my life! No kidding.
Worked fine in my pure FreeDOS machine. And it's idle-aware too
... CPU idle time 99% ... I always test that :-)

Put that way, your definitions
What you call "hints" is what I call "notes". To me, hints are something the
computer generates "smartly" when you ask it, and notes are something I provide
myself and the computer just helps me keep track of them. It does do notes.
Notes do work with the right mouse button -- I didn't notice
This mouse issue is really bothering me, as I have no much clue what's
going wrong...

Hi Bret,
I see there are more Sudoku players on this mailing list than I expected :)

I'm surprised nobody's yet suggested ways to make a "better" version of Sudoku.
What it is so far is a good start, but there could be a lot more done to it to
make it better, for example:
On-line help
Better Manual
Allow use of letter, colors, symbols, etc. instead of just numbers
Different "pl

CGA honestly doesn't look too bad
Hi again,
I released a new version of Sudoku86 - the biggest change in version
1.0.1 is support for CGA adapters. There won't be any new version in any
near future now, unless some unexpected bug pops out.
Exact changelog below:
- Added support for CGA output,
- Included the SDM2LEV tool i

Yes, I don't have any doubts about this.
But looking that way, developing on DOS in 2014 doesn't make any sense
either. It's just fun in spare time ;)

Why don't you just write a sudoku program in plain text if you want to make it
compatible?

Not much sense. Probably no one but you will try it on ugly CGA.
