Subject: Virtual Maze Book
There are great many ways to have a computer organize randomness into a
maze, and some are more interesting than others. In May of 1997 I released
Virtual Maze Book Lite 1.1 which included two very limited methods of
making mazes. This version, 2.0.1, adds a robust method which should give
enough variety to satisfy all but the most rabid maze fans.
Though the program includes a primitive capability to solve the mazes on
the screen, its strength is in producing mazes for printing on paper. This
reason for this emphasis is that the program was developed in the process
of designing two books of mazes which have been published by Dover.
Included with the program are several specialized maze fonts which will
allow one to print at high resolution.
If you enjoy mazes or know someone who does, this is a must download. This
version of the program is free. Instructions on how to upgrade to a more
complex version of the package are given in the readme.
