+\cfg{winhelp-topic}{games.dominosa}
+
+A normal set of dominoes has been arranged irregularly into a
+rectangle; then the number in each square has been written down and
+the dominoes themselves removed. Your task is to reconstruct the
+pattern by arranging the set of dominoes to match the provided array
+of numbers.
+
+This puzzle is widely credited to O. S. Adler, and takes part of its
+name from those initials.

+Left-clicking between any two adjacent numbers places a domino
+covering them, or removes one if it is already present. Trying to

+it overlaps.
+
+Right-clicking between two adjacent numbers draws a line between
+them, which you can use to remind yourself that you know those two
+numbers are \e{not} covered by a single domino. Right-clicking again

+\dt \e{Maximum number on dominoes}

+\dd Controls the size of the puzzle, by controlling the size of the
+set of dominoes used to make it. Dominoes with numbers going up to N
+will give rise to an (N+2) \by (N+1) rectangle; so, in particular,

+\dd Normally, Dominosa will make sure that the puzzles it presents
+have only one solution. Puzzles with ambiguous sections can be more
+difficult and sometimes more subtle, so if you like you can turn off
+this feature. Also, finding \e{all} the possible solutions can be an
+additional challenge for an advanced player. Turning off this option
+can also speed up puzzle generation.
