Dear Word Munchers User,

Thank you for purchasing Word Munchers!  The following information was too
late to be included in the User's Guide.  Please take the time to read it
so that you can receive maximum enjoyment from your software package.


Register Now
============
A REGISTRATION CARD is included in the package.  Please complete it and
return it to us so that we can notify you of new, exciting IBM/Tandy
products as they become available.


Make a Backup Copy
==================
Before you begin playing Word Munchers, be sure to make yourself a copy
and put the original disks in a safe place.





Using a Mouse
=============
If Word Munchers detects a mouse attached to your computer, an arrow
cursor will appear on the screen. The mouse may be used to make menu
selections and to control the Muncher.

Your mouse must be Microsoft-compatible, and must be installed prior
to starting the Word Munchers program.

To choose from a menu, move the mouse to highlight your menu selection,
and press either mouse button.

During the game, direct the Muncher to the desired square and press the
left button.  A second press in the same location will cause the Muncher
to munch the word.

The right mouse button has the same effect as the Enter Key.  Pressing
it when the game is active will set a time out.  Pressing it again will
reactivate the game.





If You Don't Have a Mouse
=========================
If you are not using a mouse with your computer, Word Munchers will
operate normally using only the keyboard for input.  However, some
older computers may have trouble when Word Munchers tries to find a
mouse and none is present.  If you do not have a mouse and Word
Munchers is behaving strangely (or not running at all), try typing 
WM NOMOUSE to start the program.



Sound and Music Support
=======================
Word Munchers supports Adlib and compatible sound boards.

If a sound board is detected by the program, Word Munchers will use
the board to play sound effects and music.  You may choose to use the
internal speaker of your PC to play the sound effects.  To toggle
sound effects between the sound board and the internal speaker of
your PC, hold down the Alt Key and press P.




Sound effects are turned on and off by holding down the Alt Key and
pressing S.

Music is toggled on or off separately from the game sounds by holding the
Alt key and pressing M.
 
 

Remember, to start the program, type WM at the DOS prompt.  We hope
you like using Word Munchers as much as we enjoyed creating it!

Sincerely,

MECC
