TODO AND IDEA LIST (no particular order)
 - If someone was looking for a word that began with say letter R the
 hint option could remove like 5 R's from the puzzle.

 - High score table

 - Ability to disable the save game option for puzzles.

 - Add a hash check to the save game text to thwart casual cheating.
 
 - Add a drop down to the style toolkit that will contain all the
 styles from the main form.

 - Change the way words are inputted into the "Manually place words"
 table. Something akin to the way words are highlighted in the puzzle.
