Developer’s Description

By Computech
Create word lists by scanning plain ASCII text files and importing them.
Word List Builder is a small utility for programmers who need a unique, royalty-free list of alphabetically sorted words in an ASCII text file for their projects. This might be for crossword puzzle, wordsearch, or anagram programs, word puzzle solvers, spell checkers, or any word-based applications. Word List Builder creates word lists by scanning plain ASCII text files and importing the words found in them, building up a list which is sorted and saved to a dictionary file. The minimum word length to import can be set and the list can be upper or lower case. Once imported, words can be checked against on-line dictionary, encyclopaedia and thesaurus services as well as Google. Also includes a basic swear filter so you don't have to read large documents such as electronic novels before importing them.
