Tools
A couple tools are included with the game. These are not necessary to play the game, but they may still be useful. The tools are found under the "Tools" menu in the menu bar in the top left corner of the program.
The dictionary lookup tool is a simple tool that can be used to check if a dictionary contains a specific word. It features an input field, where the user can enter a word to look up, as well as a dictionary selector. The validity of the word is checked as the word is typed or as the dictionary is changed, with the result being display above the input field.
The length of the word is also displayed here as a number of characters out of 15. Here, 15 refers to the size of the board, but since some dictionaries have tiles where the text consists of multiple characters, this maximum length of 15 is mostly a guideline or reference rather than a hard limit. Indeed, words longer than 15 characters can be entered.
Only loaded dictionaries (the same dictionaries that are available for play) can be selected.
Main article: Dictionary editor
The dictionary editor is a tool which facilitates the creation, editing and deletion of dictionaries. To create a dictionary, the user supplies a list of words and defines the letter pool, saving the dictionary under a name that can then be found in the settings menu.
