Who'da thunk? First free web access, now free associations. Whats the world coming to.. :-)
Anyway, to wrest this back on topic, isn't great the way you can use a shell, and a couple of tools to put together commands like:
grep '^[qwertasdfgzxcvb]*$' /usr/dict/words | awk '{print length($0),$0;}' | sort -rn > leftlist.txt
just so you can put together some demented lefthanded sentences?
Exacerbated verterbrates rearrested streetcar deserters.
Abstracted gazes traversed a vertex as facets refracted.
All we need is someone to write an anagram generator in a line or two of perl, and we're right back where we should be.
Cheers,
Brian.
