Dictionary File
-
Hello, everyone. Happy holidays. I'm just wrapping up an Anagram program to use when I play scrabble. I need all the help I can get when playing against my wife. :-) My question: I'm using an old Dic.txt file I got a couple years ago to reference in my program. Is there a formal site or program that takes a current dictionary and produces an updated text file? Bascially, how do programmers obtain current dictionary files to use in their programs today? I know I've seen some in DB and text file formats, but for now, I'm more interested in keeping in txt format. Any help in locating such a site/program would be greatly appreciated. Thanks! Sincerely, Harold Kinser
