- VOWELS is a stand-alone utility to generate lists of those words containing
- a specified number of vowels. For example, to create a list containing all
- the words in WORD.LST containing exactly 4 vowels, type: VOWELS 4
- and all these words will be stored in the file named VOWELS.4. If you desire
- to then narrow it down to 7-letter words containing 4 vowels, run the file
- VOWELS.4 through the RF utility using the limit option ( RF VOWELS.4 =7 ).
-
- VOWELS can also search source files other than the default WORD.LST. To use
- this option simply type the name of the word file after the number of vowels
- specified, for example, typing VOWELS 7 LONGWORD.LST will use the word file
- LONGWORD.LST to search for words with 7 vowels.
-
- Isn't it nice to know that there are four words containing exactly 11 vowels?
- aminoacetophenetidine
- palaeometeorological
- pericardiomediastinitis
- zoologicoarchaeologist
-
- Note that the vowels utility considers only AEIOU as vowels, *not* Y (in real
- life, Y is a vowel *sometimes*). VOWELS cannot at this time be run from the
- GO menu interface.
-
- This utility was suggested to me by P.W. of Baltimore (thanks for the idea,
- I think).
