+SOLUTIONS
+=========
+
+Stuck? Need help? Can't figure out how to pass a level? Normally I'd 
+tell you to select Show A Solution from the Move menu but it appears 
+that KGoldRunner doesn't allow third party level designers to provide 
+their own solutions.
+
+I've come up with a workaround using the fact that KGoldRunner records 
+you as you play levels. The file rec_bl.txt contains recordings of my 
+playing the levels from Beginner's Luck.
+
+If you'd like to see how I did something, move that file into 
+~/.kde/share/apps/kgoldrunner/user. However: Be aware that since 
+KGoldRunner has been recording you playing the levels this will 
+overwrite your recordings. You may want to back up your recordings 
+file if you want to be able to keep it. Also, if you then go play a 
+level it will overwrite my recording with yours. As a result, you may 
+need to keep a "pristine" copy of my recordings file around so that it 
+can be swapped in as needed if you want to see multiple solutions 
+while playing levels in between them.
+
+Hopefully these limitations will be addressed in a future version of 
+KGoldRunner.
