I'm so, so sorry.
To install, simply run the following:
git clone https://github.com/rent-yr-chemicals/cursewords.git
cd cursewords
pip install .
(It has been brought to my attention that another ncurses-powered crossword app with the name "cursewords" exists; running pip install cursewords
will install that other app instead, which will probably run better for you, but I will be sad)
To launch the app, simply run cursewords
from the command line.
To import a .puz file, use
cursewords [--source SOURCE] [file]
The optional SOURCE
parameter sets the name that will appear in the "Source" field when browsing your puzzle collection.
Pretty much all the config is hard-coded. It'll look ugly unless your terminal uses custom colors. Might have broken glyphs unless you're using a Nerd Fonts patched font. Looks best using a special version of kitty
compiled to support extra box-drawing glyphs, which is not available anywhere on any platforms.
Shut off your computer. Take a walk outside. Look at the clouds. Give your loved ones a call. Find peace.
