"Special Reserve Hangman?"

Finally got round to getting a compiler to run through this and make sure it works.

Might entertain a few of you for a few seconds.

Might not work for all but its a small file and there is no harm in trying.

Good. Because that would be bad. Oh and there are some errors with names spelt a little wrong but that just adds to the challenge :-)
Good to see it does work for some.

Heh heh.

YOU WIN!

Nice. This'll keep me amused for a while.
And I won't open the .txt files and cheat.
*Ahem*

Never mind.
I typed "java hangman", when infact I shoudl've typed "java Hangman".
I like solving my own problems seconds after I ask for help.

Ok.
It said (after I typed java hangman) "Exception in thread "main" java.lang yada yada etc"

And it listed all the files.

What you do now?

Aha.

I r geeneas.

I put the folder into D:, so then I ran it from there.
Tada

cd..

Riiight.

I'm on XP, so I go Run>Command then type cd.
But it keeps C:\DOCUME~1\Craig

So, I type cd again. Same.

So I type cd Hangman.
And I get "Invalid Directory"
Bah!

Oki doki, will do :)

There isn't one thats why :-)

What you have to do is Unzip the files into one folder (easier to put in on the C: drive as something like C:\Hangman

Then open a DOS windown and use cd.. (type cd.. and then press enter) to remove folders in the command line so that it goes from something like C:\Documents and setings\user to just C:\

then type cd Hangman and you will get C:\Hangman\
then type java Hangman

If your PC has the required JAVA thing then it should work, if not then either your PC dosn't or I have failed :-P

I couldn't find a file to start the game
