+You have a square grid; each square may contain a digit from 1 to
+the size of the grid, and some squares have greater-than signs between
+them. Your aim is to fully populate the grid with numbers such that:
+
+\b Each row contains only one occurrence of each digit
+
+\b Each column contains only one occurrence of each digit
+
+\b All the greater-than signs are satisfied. 
+
+In \q{Trivial} mode, there are no greater-than signs; the puzzle is
+to solve the \i{Latin square} only.
+
+At the time of writing, this puzzle is appearing in the Guardian
+weekly under the name \q{\i{Futoshiki}}.
+
+Unequal was contributed to this collection by James Harvey.

+\IM{Unequal controls} controls, for Unequal
+
+Unequal shares much of its control system with Solo.
+
+To play Unequal, simply click the mouse in any empty square and then
+type a digit or letter on the keyboard to fill that square. If you
+make a mistake, click the mouse in the incorrect square and press
+Space to clear it again (or use the Undo feature).
+
+If you \e{right}-click in a square and then type a number, that
+number will be entered in the square as a \q{pencil mark}. You can
+have pencil marks for multiple numbers in the same square.
+
+The game pays no attention to pencil marks, so exactly what you use
+them for is up to you: you can use them as reminders that a
+particular square needs to be re-examined once you know more about a
+particular number, or you can use them as lists of the possible
+numbers in a given square, or anything else you feel like.
+
+To erase a single pencil mark, right-click in the square and type
+the same number again.
+
+All pencil marks in a square are erased when you left-click and type
+a number, or when you left-click and press space. Right-clicking and
+pressing space will also erase pencil marks.

+require increasingly complex reasoning to avoid having to backtrack.
