Hot Potatoes

[Laura Goering]

I have been using Hot Potatoes on Windows XP using regular Windows Cyrillic support and I can't imagine why you are having difficulty. (It is also possible to add stress using Unicode combining characters in all applications other than matching with drop-down menus). If you are using an earlier version you might want to upgrade.

Can anybody on the list help me with use of Cyrillic in Hot Potatoes software 
(http://hotpot.uvic.ca/) for creating foreign language quizzes, exercises, 
crossword puzzles etc? Is it possible to type in Cyrillic within the programs 
themselves? I haven't figured out a way to do this. I can cut and paste Cyrillic 
text from word files, but ability to stay inside the programs entirely when 
creating exercises would be much more efficient, especially for items like 
crossword puzzles and others. I use regular Windows support for Cyrillic and 
standard Russian keyboard on computers with Vista and XP. Many thanks in 
advance for any tips!
