Sudokumat is a Java program originally written by Matthias Wegerhoff that is now further improved and maintained by me.
With Sudokumat you can play Sudoku quite relaxed.
Here you can see some screenshots with different menues and displays.
The versionnumber may differ.
Internet Explorer saves the file as ZIP-archive (.zip), but actually it is a JAVA-archive (.jar). Therefor the file must be renamed back to sudokumat.jar at or after download!

System Requirements: Java version 1.5 or better.
Sudokumat needs no additional installation. Having Java (1.5 or better) installed the downloaded sudokumat.jar can directly be started from a command prompt in the download directory using
java -jar sudokumat.jar
Starting Sudokumat directly from your graphical user interface depends on your operating system.
Normally on Windows no further steps are needed: just double-click the downloaded jar-file to start the program.
This only works, if jar files are associated with the Java runtime (Version 1.5 or better). Otherwise you can manually create a shortcut.
javaw.exe
is needed, completed by the parameter
-jar sudokumat.jar
.
C:\Program Files\Java\jre1.5.0_10\bin\javaw.exe -jar sudokumat.jar
sudokumat.jar
is stored.
Sudokumat is free. Nevertheless it has the full spectrum of felt quality. To give these impressions a chance to effect the further development, they have to be communicated.
