It's also a fairly crowded market, I don't hear a call for Yet Another Crossword Program. I do have to admit, though, that I'm not very intrigued by the quality of the results of the commercial ones I've seen. You can usually tell when something's been generated by a program.
This is very true. At the time, I had the opportunity to write one that would have gone in just about every teacher store in the U.S. The margins for Ed Software Tools these days are just not as lucrative as the private sector applications. There was a time when it was good enough to financially justify the time spent. Luckily, I receive a great deal of pleasure making tools in this market while my other projects help to subsidize the expenses.
