Despite the ingeniousness of the initial idea, however, the program is long due for an update. It's probably optimistic to imagine that the developer has been working on an update for over two years, but I like my mom's motto--you never know what you might get if you don't ask! So, as a devoted puzzler, here's a couple of suggestions that would greatly improve functionality and appeal.
First of all, I've found five different daily/weekly crosswords out on the Web that I enjoy doing in addition to the ones I get from PuzzleGetter, but I have to download them from their individual sites if I want to save them for later instead of doing them in my browser. It would be awesome if they could be added to the application, just say the word and I'll give out a list!
Perhaps due to the lengthy dry spell since any updates, puzzles from The National Post button no longer captures a file format MacXWord can recognize and I have yet to find another way to open them.
Last but not least, the ultra-simple interface has so little information about the puzzles it can be hard to remember if any of them are cryptics (I think the Sunday Cape Cod is but I rarely remember to check on a Sunday), which I hate doing, and a difficulty rating wouldn't hurt, and maybe an index of which puzzles are posted on more than one website. I've started a puzzle that seemed awfully easy and realized I'd done it before without knowing where!
