NAME boggle - Find all words in boggle SYNOPSYS boggle [-l] DESCRIPTION Enter 4x4 character boggle boards. Computer calculates all possible words of the minimal length (default 4). Uses a dictionary file "dictionary" in the current woring directory. A dutch dictionary is included. Writes a "gedachten" file as a curiosity, it contains the reasoning the program did. MOTIVATION When playing Boggle I often have the feeling: there must be more words in this... I've always been curious to know *all* possible words for a certain combination. I didn't find any program that does this. All existing "boggle" games ask the player to find the words. INSTALLING Any Unix or Cigwin/Windows should work. If you're lucky, just type 'make', otherwise tweak the (one-line) Makefile. Tested under FreeBSD and Cigwin/Windows. I will compile and pre-package a version for Windows if there is interest. (I have it somewhere...) The current directory should be writable for the 'gedachten' file.

Do with it what ever you want but I would appreciate that you keep my name somewhere. I've wrote this both for the fun of programming and to use it while playing boggle! So if you make any improvements, I like to get them too! I don't remember where I got the Dutch dictionary file, so I don't know about posible copyright issues for this.
