From the keyboard of des0mpw@colman.newcastle.ac.uk (M.P. Ward):
:Well, it's the time of year when word games are popular. Here's the results
:of my researches with perl and a 70,000 word dictionary. Any improvements
:from people with larger dictionaries are welcome! Devising the appropriate
:perl scripts is left as an exercise for the reader :-)

Ah come on, pleeeeease be so kind as to post them -- they sound neat.
I've a larger dictionary --  I'll run your script through them.  I'll
bet their good examples of how to do word-game things in perl, too.
