:The code should work with any text list. I don't mind if the specific list isn't critical to the task. The advantage of the one I am proposing is that it includes names (i.e. Nigel and Paddy). The Perl entry has a wildcard feature that could be foreseeing 7733428483 8398. You may want a version which allows numbers. 2748424767 -> "Briticisms", "criticisms".--[[User:Nigel Galloway|Nigel Galloway]] ([[User talk:Nigel Galloway|talk]]) 15:29, 6 February 2015 (UTC)
 
:: I agree with your statement of ''should work with any text list'' (dictionary).   However (see the talk section   '''duplicate words in dictionary''',   it depends on whether or not the dictionary contains duplicated words, and more importantly, how the computer program treats/handles those duplicates.   So, the inclusion of one particular dictionary can cause differences in the output of various computer programs, depending on, in this case, duplicate words.   Rejected words don't appear to be a problem;   but showing a count of rejected words would be a nice and easy thing to add as any dictionary is fair game. -- [[User:Gerard Schildberger|Gerard Schildberger]] ([[User talk:Gerard Schildberger|talk]]) 18:43, 10 February 2015 (UTC)
