        A crossword generator
        ---------------------
        
        Description
        -----------
        
        Genxword is a crossword generator written in Python. It works with Python
        2.7 and Python 3.
        
        When you install genxword, you will have two programs,
        `genxword-gtk <https://github.com/riverrun/genxword/wiki/genxword-gtk>`_,
        which has a graphical user interface, and genxword, which runs from the
        command line.
        
        Both programs create a crossword from a list of words and
        clues. You can save the crossword, with clues, as a pdf file, or you can
        save the empty grid and key in png and/or svg format, together with the
        word bank and clues in a text file.
        
        Features
        --------
        
        -  The crossword can be saved, with clues, as a pdf file, or the empty
           grid and key can be saved in png and/or svg format, together with the
           word bank and clues in a text file.
        -  The crossword can be recalculated multiple times - with the option to
           increase the grid size at each stage.
        -  A dictionary file can be used as the word list. A certain amount of
           words (default 50) will be randomly selected from the file and used
           to make the crossword.
        -  When editing the word list, there is an option to sort it, from the
           shortest to the longest word, and remove non-alphabetic characters.
        -  Multiple languages, including right-to-left languages, such as Hebrew
           and Arabic, are now supported.

        Installation
        ------------
        
        To install genxword for Python 3 (add *sudo* to the command, or run as root,
        if you are using Linux): ::
        
            pip3 install genxword
        
        To install genxword for Python 2.7, or any version on Windows: ::
        
            pip install genxword
        
        Dependencies
        ------------
        
        Genxword depends on pycairo (python-cairo), pygobject (python-gobject or python-gi),
        python-gi-cairo (if you are using a Debian-based system), pango (gir1.2-pango-1.0)
        and gtksourceview3 (gir1.2-gtksource-3.0).
        
        These dependencies can easily be installed on Linux by using your package manager,
        and with most distributions, they will already be installed.
        
        Windows users can download these dependencies from 
        `here <http://sourceforge.net/projects/pygobjectwin32/files/?source=navbar>`_
        When installing python-gobject, you also need to install (check the boxes for)
        gtk3, pango, gdk-pixbuf and gtksourceview3.
