- It occurred to me that it would be nice for the computer to be able to solve
- those maddening "Jumblegram" scrambled word games found in daily newspapers,
- mostly near the comic sections. Programming this required only slight modifi-
- cations of the ANAGRAM code. No big deal.
-
- To use UNSCRAMBLE, just type: UNSCR xxxxxxx, where xxxxxxx is the letter set
- to unscramble. The unscrambled words will be printed to the screen, not to a
- disk file, since there will likely be only one, or at most two or three
- "solutions". The master word list, WORD.LST is searched.
-
- The UNSCRAMBLE utility also works with other word lists in addition to the
- master word list, WORD.LST. For example, to use it with the LONGWORD.LST
- given as a premium to registered WORDY users, type: UNSCR xxxxx longword.lst.
- Note that the word list used must be in ASCII and in the format of one word
- per line terminated by a carriage return. Both the WORD.LST and the LONGWORD.
- LST meet this criterion.
-
- The entire WORDY package still costs only $2.00 (cheap!) to register. Such a
- deal. Registered users will receive as a bonus the LONGWORD.LST, a list of
- 133,284 words over 8 letters long.
