The database can be edited: add words, delete, change descriptions (spelling check is available). The user can import (insert) words from their text files into the program database and create their own word bases.
Cross + A includes a graphical editor for creating Japanese crossword puzzles, as well as generators for automatically creating logical puzzles.
Program operation modes:
- Search for words by letter (if you know the length of the word and some of its letters).
- Anagram search:
1. Search for exact matches;
2. Search for all words that can be made up from the letters of the given word;
3. Find words that include all the letters of the given word.
- Search by description (if you know the keywords in the description of the word).
- Search by pattern (if you know some letters of the word: instead of a single unknown letter the "?" Is substituted, instead of a few letters - "*", instead of the same letters - numbers, instead of any vowel - "@", instead of any consonant letter - " $ ", instead of a few vowel letters -" & ", instead of a few consonant letters -" # ").
- Search for phrases that can be composed of the letters of a given word, for example:
PROGRAMMING = ARENA + GROM + WORLD + BEER
- Search by syllables (search for words that can be made from a given list of letters); eg:
I, LI, PO, SI, ZI, CI = LILY, POSITION, POLICE, SICILY
- Search for "linked" words (search for word pairs, where the end of the first word coincides with the beginning of the second word); for example: ???? (Graph) ???? = PHOTOGRAPHER, GRAPHOMAN
- Finding words in a grid (in a rectangular or square grid filled with letters, the program tries to find words, passing from letter to letter in the horizontal and vertical direction).
- Kryptarithms (mathematical expressions in which numbers are replaced by letters); for example: DECISION + IF = SILENN => 9382 + 3152 = 12534
- Search for chains of words (search for word strings that differ from each other with one or more letters); for example: ZERO - SAL - SALT - SEVEN
