Sp! 8th March 2005 Thank you!!! I have been addicted to these puzzles for a while now and this is just brilliant. I generate half a dozen gifs and paste them into word to take to work with me. Took a little searching to find this wiki (found your home page first) but very glad I did.
AvL March 21th 2005: I join in to this praising. Anyway, I've also made some changes to my copy: changed gray and darkgrey both to blue (grey was too little contrast on my monitor), and I made bind'ings for digit-keys to invoke the respective button. Also, I've made the cells larger (from 25 to 35) and changed the buttons from image to penfont-text (-width 2).
I've got some more "feature"-requests:

DPE 21 April 2005 I've only just noticed the above posts. Thanks for the positive feedback. Now that you've set me a challenge, I'll see if I can find some time to do some more improvements!
David,
I am intending to port this to Mac OS X as a self-contained file, such that it can be simply double-clicked by the most ignorant of users. I couldn't find your email anywhere to obtain your permission to do so. If you have any qualms about this, please post them to this site.
Thanks, Dan Schellenberg
DPE 21 April 2005 Dan, feel free to use this as you wish - just reference this page or my web site somewhere. I can put a MAC executable on my web site if you think it would be of interest.
PT 19-May-2005: Very cool!!
