    Crypto-Man is game of 'Crypto-Quotes.
      It works like this.

          G X B X J I P X
      is  P A S A D E N A


   One letter stands for another.  In this sample G is used for the one
   P, X is used for the 3 A's, B is used for the one S, etc. You MUST
   type the periods, commas, and other punctuation EXACTLY as shown in
   the puzzle. On each puzzle the code letters ARE different.

   To get to the control menu hit <CTRL>-W.  To continue the game type
   C. For help getting started with the puzzle hit H.  It will ask what
   letter you want to find.  You may choose any letter you wish.
   REMEMBER, 10 points is deducted from your score each time you use
   help.

   Also, you may communicate with other users that are playing
   CryptoMan, StarQuest, BrainPower, or any other game released from The
   Rock Software. To send a message, choose 'C' and then type in your
   message.  After entering your message hit <ENTER>.

   Scoring is based upon the number of completed messages and the size
   of the crypto.dbf (which contains the cryptograms).  A completed
   message is worth 100 points.  However, each time HELP is used, 10
   points is deducted from the score.

   If your screen gets messed-up because of line noise or any other
   reason, you may go to the control menu (^W) and choose 'R' (Redraw
   Screen).

   Callers are limited to playing CryptoMan once a day. Your game will
   be saved if you find that you must quit CryptoMan before finishing
   your current puzzle.
