CROSWRD.EXE     the program CROSWRD runs on all IBM-PC and compatibles with
                the IBM-PC character set. It needs at least DOS version
                3.0. 512 Kbytes memory must be available. When the program
                does not run properly on your computer, then start the

                screen in the editor ("E") with "^L". Verify the solution

                file with "COPY HPDJ500.PRT PRN". You may adapt a file to
                your printer. Your printer has to support the IBM-PC
                character set. Please read RAETSEL.DOK too. Naturally,
                you can print at any time the actual screen content using
                the key "PrtSc". Don't forget to turn the printer on!
