|
||
|
and "web2a.gz" in the /usr/share/dict directory of the Debian "miscfiles"
|
||
|
package (GNU miscfiles version 1.2). The following commands were used to

|
||
|
|
||
|
zcat /usr/share/dict/web2a.gz | fgrep -v ' ' > temp.dict
|
||
|
cat /usr/share/dict/web2 temp.dict | tr '[A-Z]' [a-z]' | sort \
|
||
|
| uniq > webster2.dict
|
||
|
rm temp.dict
|
||
|
|

WEB ---- (introduction provided by jaw@riacs) -------------------------
|
||
|
|
||
|
Welcome to web2 (Webster's Second International) all 234,936 words worth.
|
||
|
The 1934 copyright has elapsed, according to the supplier. The
|
||
|
supplemental 'web2a' list contains hyphenated terms as well as assorted
|
||
|
noun and adverbial phrases. The wordlist makes a dandy 'grep' victim.
