- The WORDY game checks the "validity" of played words against a 100,000+ word
- dictionary file. Using the stand-alone SEARCH utility, you may check whether
- a word is included in the dictionary, telling you incidentally whether that
- word is usable when playing the Scrabble (tm) word game.
-
- To check any particular word, type, from the DOS prompt, SEARCH XXXXX,
- where XXXXX is the word. For example, to check the word "zarf", type:
- search zarf. This checks if the word is in the master word file, word.lst.
-
- To check if a given word is in any *other* word file, type:
- search XXXXX FILENAME, where XXXXX is the word and FILENAME is the file name.
- This feature is particularly useful if you have obtained the supplementary
- LONGWORD.LST, a list of 133,284 words over 8 letters long given as a bonus to
- registered WORDY users. To check if "abasement" is in LONGWORD.LST, type:
- search abasement longword.lst
- Note: you *must* register WORDY to obtain the LONGWORD.LST. It is not a part
- or the WORDY package.
