FindWord Version 1.1
Sam J. Kirkpatrick
Welcome to FindWord! This utility is designed to aid in the creation
of and solutions to crossword puzzles. For example, if you need to
find a word which is 5 letters long and starts with a 't' and the last
letter is 'n', FindWord will display all the words it can find which
match. Simply type 't???n' and FindWord will search throught its
dictionary and pull out words such as taken, talon, toxin, train, etc.
for you. Or type '???ion' and FindWord will list action, legion,
ration and many others. FindWord's dictionary contains almost 80,000
words ranging from two to eight characters long. FindWord will list the
first 147 words it finds which match your string. The more characters
you know, the shorter the list will be.
In order for FindWord to work as designed, the following files must
be present in the same directory:
findword.exe words.txt readme.txt
FindWord is shareware. If you wish to purchase it please send $5.00 to
the author at the address below. Also, please indicate where you
obtained FindWord from. And please feel free to share this program with
your friends or distribute it in any manner, just please remember that
all three files need to be included.
I welcome your comments and suggestions.
