| Creating
Spellmaster Games There
are nine files in the template for this exercise; (right click
and choose "save target as").
The
only file you will need to change to create new games is the
words.txt file.
The first line must contain the name of the target language
– then a comma – then the name of the list. This
is followed by pairs of words/phrases separated by commas
For each new topic you will need to make a copy of the original
folder and replace the words.txt file with a new word list.
The following instructions will guide you through this easy
process.
When running
the exercise it is necessary to view the html file. All
nine files must be in the same folder for the exercise to
work
- Make
a copy of the original folder
-
Rename this new folderwith an appropriate name: ex“les
matières”
- Open
your words.txt file.
- On
the first line type in your target language and the name
of the vocabulary list separated by a single comma. e.g.:
French, Les matières
- Type
in your vocabulary list. One pair of words/phrases on each
line separated by a comma. You can copy and paste words
from something you have already done
e.g.la geo, geography
le français,French.
- Notes
(i) In this version the letter limit for each word/phrase
is about 25 characters
(ii) You will need to have a least ten word/phrase pairs
(iii) You can cut and paste text from other lists you may
have
- Check
through your list for any mistakes.
It is important that there are no blank lines in the list
or at the end of the file
Save the text file. There are two very important points
here
-
The file must be called words.txt
-
It must be saved in your newly created directory
