This chapter describes how to

• Start Puzzle
• Play with Puzzle
• Start a new game
• Exit Puzzle

Starting Puzzle

To start Puzzle:

1. Choose Menu Bar... from the Session Manager's Options menu. A dialog box appears.
2. Click on Games.
3. Click on OK or Apply. The Games menu appears on the Session Manager's menu bar.
4. Choose Puzzle from the Session Manager's Games menu. Puzzle appears on the screen.

Playing with Puzzle

The puzzle squares are scrambled. The trick is to arrange them in ascending order in the fewest possible moves. Puzzle keeps track of the number of moves you make.

Click on the square you want to move. Alternatively, you can type the corresponding number on the keypad and press the Enter key. Although you can move only those squares that are adjacent to the blank square, you can slide an entire row at a time.

You can make Puzzle easier or more challenging by changing the settings. To change the Puzzle settings, choose Settings... from the Options menu. A dialog box appears.

Try increasing the number of squares per side. To do so, press and hold MB1 on the number in the slider and drag to the right. To change the settings, click on OK. To return to Puzzle without changing any settings, click on Cancel.

To save the changes you made, choose Save Settings from the Options menu before you exit Puzzle. To restore the system settings, choose Restore System Settings from the Options menu.

Starting a New Game

You can end an existing game at any time. To rescramble the squares and start a new game, choose New Game from the File menu.

Exiting Puzzle

To exit Puzzle, choose Exit from the File menu.

In a DECterm window, you can use compose sequences to create special characters. A compose sequence is a series of keystrokes that create characters that do not exist as standard keys on your keyboard. You can create any character from the character set that DECterm is currently using. (For more information about choosing a character set, see Chapter 8.)

Depending on the keyboard type, you compose characters in either of the following ways:

• Use three-stroke sequences on a VT320 keyboard, including the North American/United Kingdom, Dutch, and Norwegian/ Danish keyboards.
• Use two-stroke sequences on other keyboards.

To compose a character:

1. Find the character you want to create in column 1 of the three tables that follow.
2. To compose a three-stroke sequence, simultaneously press and then release the Compose key and the space bar, and type the two characters in column 2.

   Note You must simultaneously press the Compose key and the space bar to begin a compose sequence.

3. To compose a two-stroke sequence, type the two characters in column 3. The desired character is displayed.
4. Press the Compose key and space bar, <X| key, Tab key, Return key, or Enter key to cancel a compose sequence.

The characters that you compose in Multinational Character Mode are as follows:
