I just figured that I should have a look at your solutions to hopefully learn a few new things. However I have a problem using the information you provide.

I save the link to a txt file and then try to use load in Loopy ( found at the site http://www.chiark.greenend.org.uk/~sgtatham/puzzles/ ), but with all the files I've tried, I get "Save file contained an invalid move" when I try to load them. Any tips on what I'm doing wrong?

Thanks for the link!

Next problem: How do I see your solution? I get the puzzle loaded with numbers. The only thing I can think of is to press solve, but it just gives me a fast fill-in of (what I think) the most easy parts. I'm probably hoping for too much here, but I thought I should be able to see in which order you added the lines since the file describes "MOVE"s?

I'll readd this to my todo list for LoopDeLoop - my plan was to support loading loopy save files and prepopulating the undotree with the moves specified.  That way you can hit redo alot to show how it goes.

Exactly the functionality I was looking for!

Having this in LoopDeLoop would also be very nice.
But I can't get this to work in Loopy. Can anybody tell me how I can see the solution in Loopy? When I click Solve it only does the "normal" solving.

btw - I felt that today's puzzle was extremly easy for a Thursday. I almost broke my own record.

To see the next step in a solution, you must press 'R' (or Game->Redo). Pressing 'U' (or Game->Undo) goes in the other direction.

Ah, that's how to do it! Thanks, Brian!
