Files

There are three python source files and two data files currently being used:

  • lookup.py - Primary user actions and commands, word matching methods; data file reading
  • definitions.py - Data structures and definitions, inflection and dictionary entry classes, lower level search and match methods
  • matchfilter.py - MatchFilter class, used for limiting results based on dictionary entry properties and inflections
  • DICTLINE.GEN - Original dictionary file from Whitaker's WORDS
  • INFLECTS.LAT - Original listing of inflections (declensions, conjugations, etc) from WORDS

Other files come from either the original WORDS program, or other Python ports of WORDS. The file notes.txt contains useful comments and definitions used by the original program, often copied over.
