LETTER MATCH is an easy to play and very challenging word game, designed
to test your memory, category knowledge and spelling.

The object of the game is to match as many words as possible, each time 
trying to beat the score you have posted in the high score file, as well
other players scores.

The Sysop determines the category subject and the program will display it
at the top of the box that contains the current word you are working with.

You must think of a word, in line with the current category, whose first 
letter matches the last letter of the word in the box OR whose last letter
matches the first letter of the word in the box.

For Example: Given the category "STATES and CAPITALS" and an initial word 
             of "OREGON", you could use "OHIO" to match the first letter 
             in "OREGON" or you could use "NEW YORK" to match the last 
             letter in "OREGON".



The word you choose then replaces the word in the box. At this point you 
will chooses another word OR the computer will play a word. Your Sysop 
controls whether or not the computer will be playing.

The program automatically detects if there are any remaining matches that 
can be made. If none remain the game will end. You can quit at any time 
and your accumulated score, up to that time, will be saved IF it is greater
than the score you may already have in the high score file.
