[gcompris-devel] New activity, the hangman

[Fionn Ziegler]

I meant "git pull" command...
nice idea... Had no problems to compile/run it. My school-kids love the
"KHangman" game. But they don't play it without an hint. So every word have
description like "Monday". hint: "A weekday...". may be you're able to use
some stuff of the KHangman game!?
