XScrabble is a multiplayer (1-4) implementation of the classic board game Scrabble with computer players and over 118,000 word dictionary. There is a high score table, a best single goes list, a handy setup window, and load/save facilities.

Simply type xscrabble. This will bring up the setup box which will allow you to enter the names and displays and other info for the game to wish to play. Then click on the Start Game button, (or Load Previous if you're restarting a game). The main program, xscrab, will then be automatically called with the appropriate options.

The game is saved after every turn (in "~/.xscrabble.save" of the person running it) and can be restarted by running xscrabble, entering exactly the same info, and hitting the Load Previous button.
