JUMBLE - a word descrambling program.
Jumble prompts the user for a string of letters, and will display any
words that these letters unscramble to. If no matches are found, it
will tell the user, nicely.
*** YOU WILL NEED AN ASCII DICTIONARY (not included) TO RUN THIS PROGRAM ***
Jumble was written on a whim while I should have been studying for exams.
It was originally written and compiled on a Sun workstation. The
executable in this package was compiled using Turbo C++, and expects to
find a dictionary named WORDS in the current directory (this can be
changed in the jumble.h file). I have included a rudimentry WORDS file
so you can see the program in action. I recommend the 60K-WORD dictionary,
which I know can be obtained from the PC-Ohio BBS, (216) 381-3320
(60K-WORD.ZIP). I didn't see the need to waste space including a dictionary
in this file. The rudimentry dictionary includes "try", "unscrambling",
"these","words"
The source is known to compile under Turbo C, and several UNIX systems,
it doesn't use anything esoteric, so it should compile under about anything.
Happy debugging,
