  <title>Hints and warnings</title>

  <p>You can use hints to reveal safe tiles and flag warnings to help you keep
  track of flags.</p>

  <p>Click <gui style="button">Hint</gui> in the toolbar to reveal a hidden
  tile that is safe. You will be penalised for using hints: ten seconds will be
  added to your total time.</p>

  <p>To enable warnings, edit the preferences by selecting
  <guiseq><gui>Mines</gui><gui>Preferences</gui></guiseq> and ticking the
  checkbox next to <gui>Warn if too many flags have been placed</gui>. This
  will warn you when you try to place too many flags next to an open tile.</p>
