  To use this feature in command-line: serate, hints, pencilmarks and solve:
  In GUI, setup the sudoku with the correct extra regions layout. Exit GUI. This saves the layout in SukakuExplainer.json.
  Example:

java.exe -Xrs -Xmx1g -cp SukakuExplainer.jar diuf.sudoku.test.serate -U -X --input=custom.txt --output=custom.se

  For more info see: http://forum.enjoysudoku.com/help-with-sudoku-explainer-t6677-270.html#p305813
  Option: Use -M for sudokus with multiple solutions. Using -M disables the UL and BUG solving techniques.
  Examples:

java.exe -Xrs -Xmx1g -cp SukakuExplainer.jar diuf.sudoku.test.serate -M --input=sample.txt --output=sample.se

java.exe -Xrs -Xmx1g -cp SukakuExplainer.jar diuf.sudoku.test.pencilmarks -M --input=sample.txt >sample.p

java.exe -Xrs -Xmx1g -cp SukakuExplainer.jar diuf.sudoku.test.hints -M --input=sample.txt >sample.h
