Spelion is a word spelling puzzle.
https://gitlab.com/christosangel/spelion
Using just the given 7 letters, you are called to form as many words as possible.
Rules
- The word that you form must include the center letter.
- You don’t have to use all the other letters.
- Minimum length of the word that you create is four letters.
- Any given letters can be used more than one time in a word.
- The word list is contained in
/usr/share/dict/words
, minus words with upper-case letters, words with apostrophe and words containing letters with accent marks.Name
The name SPELION was just a made up word with letters that could form the root spel(l), while at the same time these letters could appear in a (recursive) Spelion puzzle. The name stuck when I found out that by pure chance Spelion was also an anagram of the greek letter epsilon.
I already updated the README, mentioning the dependency.
Thank you very much for the feedback and the kind words!
