There are some characters that you can't draw in the
Game III section, and when you press the hint button
you don't get hints. Therefore you can't finish the game
for those. There was one early in the game, but I can't
remember what it was (gou3?) The current one I'm
stuck on is "chu2fang2 (kitchen)". The first character
works, but the second lets you get two strokes into it,
then you can't continue (can't draw the character, hint
doesn't work). I'm using a Tungsten T, Dragon v. 0.3,
traditional characters.

(I love the program by the way -- really really cool).

    Daniel,

    There was a problem in the data file for chu2. I have fixed
    it in CVS, so it should be fixed the next time Thomas
    uploads a snapshot. Thanks for finding the bug! Please let
    us know if you find any more.

    (I couldn't locate a "gou" in the mandarin data file...)

    The problematic character is fang2 -- it has problems
    everywhere it shows up, not just with chu2. The other
    character was guo4 -- to pass, traverse; just found it.

    Oops, yes - I meant fang2 below. It was fang2 I corrected,
    not chu2.

    I will look at guo4 tomorrow.

    Daniel,

    guo4 traditional is fixed in CVS - it looks like Thomas
    caught this one a little while ago, as before the fix will
    show up in the next snapshot.

    I found this problem with the "Ou1 Zhou1" word in the PCR 1 traditional dataset. The character file for "Ou1" has an duplicate "A ..." line defining the start point of the second stroke twice.
