What is CryptoQuote?
CryptoQuote is a word game like one seen in many major newspapers. Letters of a famous quote (and author) are encrypted by changing each occurrance of a letter to some other letter. So, "A REALLY SHORT QUOTE" might be encrypted as "F OVFKKW ZXAOP CDAPV".
Requirements
Mac OS X 10.3 or later
minimal hard drive space
Contents of the Disk Image
CryptoQuote - the program itself
ReadMe - this document
Installation
Copy CryptoQuote to a desired location on your hard drive (may I suggest the Applications folder). Open CryptoQuote from your hard drive to enjoy.
Note: Not copying to your hard drive and running from a disk image may cause CryptoQuote to crash.
CryptoQuote.com
CryptoQuote includes a feature where it downloads and uses puzzles from CryptoQuote.com. I, John Haney, am not directly affiliated with CryptoQuote.com. Their puzzle content is provided as a convenience only, and I make no guarantees regarding it.
