Hangman version 2  By Jim Kitchen

The object of the hangman game is to figure out the mystery word.
You will be told if the mystery word is a person, place or thing
and how many letters there are in the word.  You then type in a
letter that you think might be in the word.  If the letter that you
type is in the word you will hear a ding and be told the position
of that letter.  If the letter is in the word more than once it
will tell you all of the positions that the letter accurse in your
word.  If the letter is not in the word you will hear a bad buzzer
sound and a part will be added to your person.  If you guess so
many wrong letters that your person is completed and hung you lose
on that word.

The skill level that you choose will determine how many parts your
person gets before it is hung.
In skill level beginner you get head, arm, arm, body, leg, leg,
shirt, pants shoe, shoe, and hat before you are hung.
In skill level easy you get head, arm, arm, body, leg, leg, shirt
and pants before you are hung.

There are two word lists with the game but you can also create your
own word list if you like.  The word list must be a plain text file
in the following format.

person,1
place,2
thing,3

So if the word is a person, follow the word with a comma and the
number 1.  For a place follow the word with a comma and the number
2 and a comma and the number 3 for a thing.  Each word must be at
least 4 letters but no more than 10.

To uninstall hangman I E remove all of the hangman files run the
uninhang.bat file.
